This is the first year the whole region can actually watch the games so hopefully that helps going forward
the addition of Fox Sports N.O. will hopefully help. there is absolutely no doubt about that. however just because in years past some on the north shore weren't able to watch every game on TV isn't really an excuse. the team is basically in their backyard! lol
the bigger issue to me is OUTSIDE of NOLA. I'm mainly talking about around the BR area. I'm willing to bet that about 90% of my friends are sports fans and literally maybe 2 or 3 of them have ever attended a Hornets game. I have friends who live in BR and have season tickets with the Voodoo, but could give two shits about the Hornets. its sad to me that we have the NBA in our backyard and most sports fans in the state could careless. the "football and football only" mentality around here is downright annoying at times.

Football is much easier to make an hour drive once a week on Sundays. Its much more difficult to do that on weekdays multiple times a week. I made a couple of games this year, but I'm a 20 year old college student and don't have the resources that some people do.
That being said, I really hope the rebrand can help attract more fans outside of New Orleans and get people more motivated to make those trips
