Royal Rumble 1997 attendance

I did not know this until 5 seconds ago but the 1997 Royal Rumble in San Antonio had 60,000 fans in attendance! I take it that is the largest non-Wrestlemania WWE crowd of all time other than Summerslam 1992?

My question..... why did the Rumble have 60,000 people that year and not Wrestlemania?
