Or train ride. Makes a huge difference when you can let someone else do the driving, and keep the buzz after the match!
I think pro/rel would make a huge difference. Look at the cities that were meh in attendance in USL and are blowing the doors off in MLS (ATL, Charlotte, Nashville, Cincy, STL, etc.) Birmingham Legion draws ~5,000 for a home USL match, but then got 12K for Charlotte and 18K for Miami in the US Open Cup. So that level is possible, if the perception/prestige is there. Birmingham is already playing peer cities with Tampa, Pittsburgh, Louisville, Memphis, etc. but Nashville, Atlanta, Miami, and Charlotte would be a nice step up, and a good incentive for the club to keep improving.
