Why is there a scheduled blackout of football broadcasts in the UK? I don’t get it; it’s not like everyone can be at the stadiums at the same time.

When the Sky deal happened, the clubs agreed that Saturday 3pm games would not be televised to ensure that people would still attend the ground and to preserve the traditions of 3pm Saturday football. This obviously did not apply outside of the UK, but even before internet and illegal streams some pubs would get foreign satellite broadcasts illegally.
