Google Maps could write a similar blog post, although it wouldn't be a long one. Here's what you can do to see something similar:

- Pick a muslim country

- Find a sports venue / field / track in google maps close to population centers

- Scroll down to see if it's busy

It will say "busier than usual" for all hours of the evening after people break their fast, for the whole month. Warrants a bit of tweaking of their algorithms?

Why would it be busier than usual?

Muslims tend to pray special prayers (Traweeh) in Ramadan after iftar.

Ah true. Maybe the trend doesn't apply to all countries. For some the sports venues are busier, for some the mosques.
