That is not true, and I am not a Chicago sports fan.

Cubs did very well in attendance for decades and decades considering how shitty they were. Bulls just had the longest sell out streak in the NBA end recently. Bears fans are loyal as shite, and they still do very well in attendance even though they haven't been relevant except for a year or two in the lifetime of a lot of people on this board. Hawks attendance only really sucked during the last years of Papa Wirtz.

I am not a native, but I'd give Chicago a lot of credit for being a loyal sports city, especially compared to its peer cities.

I agree with all of this. I'm a Packer fan, but I will say Bears fans are loyal. Cubs obviously. Chicago is similar in its support of teams to Boston.
