And when they actually get a team they will average maybe 1000 a night once novelty wears off

This happened in Mobile with our ECHL team. First two years the average attendance was around 4,000. It steadily declined each year until just a few hundred diehard fans attended and the team moved to Atlanta and became to Gwinnett Gladiators

Yeah right now it’s selling out because these games are like a one off event. Once there’s 25 of these games a winter people won’t be treating them as one off events and have the same excitement to go.
Plus the team better be good for any chance at a crowd. Louisiana fans are the biggest bandwagon fans on the planet.

If the expectations are set right, it could still do very well. The Mudbugs have flourished here again since their return 6 years ago. It's junior hockey now, but having weekend blocks of games combined with lower tickets/concessions and going back to the Hirsch has been a big success for everyone.
Not saying it will happen with BR, but if Shreveport can sustain it again then there's no excuse.

This. Nostalgia is a hell of a drug. No way BR sustains a hockey team long term
