Because it's of the heart.
If there is a total lunar eclipse, everybody sees it as total. If there is a total solar eclipse, only people in a small part of Earth see it as total - most will see it as a partial eclipse, or not at all.
More people can see a total lunar eclipse than a total solar eclipse because to see the complete solar eclipse you must be in a locations directly underneath it so your point of view and angle of the moon is correct. It doesn't matter as much as to where you are for a lunar eclipse...
A total lunar eclipse can be seen anywhere on Earth where the moon is visible..so you are more likely to see a lunar eclipse than a solar eclipse.
It's the other way around; more people can see a total lunar eclipse than a total solar eclipse. The reason is that a lunar eclipse happens on the Moon; it is visible from half of the Earth's surface. A solar eclipse occurs along a narrow track across the Earth, and 75% of the Earth's surface is oceans.
Because they think its chorizo and its gonna try to kill them and eat them. Chorizo= Fat person.

A total solar eclipse is visible only across a narrow path of the Earth's surface; generally no more than 200 miles across, and sometimes much less. A total lunar eclipse occurs on the Moon itself, and is visible from the entire night side of the Earth.

Short answer: True. Long answer: not entirely true as follows: The eclipse event as a whole is visible to anyone within either the umbra or the penumbra, however it appears as truly total only to those within the umbra. That is, those who are not in the umbra are seeing an event that will be called a "total eclipse", just not optimally, as it will appear only partial to them.
A solar eclipse may be partial, total, or annular.
