Empty seats for the 1500m final Beijing Olympic Gams

Incredible - at the Olympic Games in beijing, the stadium started emptying out right before the 1500 meter final - one of the premier events at the Games. Was it because it was late (22:30 local time)? Was it because the public transportation was ending for the evening? Was it because the local attendees simply didn't care or were there just to fill the stadium?

1500 is boring... people like sprints and mid distance races
