The largest NHL arena holds around 21,000. MLS has at least 12 stadiums with higher capacities than that. The largest MLS stadiums hold as many 50, 60, even 70,000. With percentage attendance at NBA and NHL games tending to be nearer capacity than attendance at soccer, can you imagine if NHL arenas could hold that many people? Christ, for the 2014 Winter Classic (an annual NHL regular season game that's held at an outdoor stadium) attendance at Michigan Stadium was 105,491. If NHL and NBA arenas had higher capacities, people would continue to flock to watch games every night as they always do, and the average attendance would go up. I know that because the NHL has a lot more fans in the US than MLS. And the NBA is even MORE popular. This is seriously not even an argument. This has to be the most ridiculous argument I have seen in a while. The NBA and MLS are not even in the same discussion. The NBA is FAR more popular. Only by your TV metrics. Sport is for genuine supporters, not lazy ass couch potatoes😉 Teach your kids that football is a spectator sport, not a TV programme or video game⚽👍💪😛 |
