23K show up for SF Opera

San Francisco Opera's free Friday night simulcast of Gaetano Donizetti's tragic warhorse "Lucia di Lammermoor" drew about 23,000 people to AT&T Park, according to Opera estimates. It was the second time the company simulcast a production from the the War Memorial Opera House (Camille Saint-Saƫns' "Samson and Delilah" was the first, in September).
