If Orlando built like a 30kish stadium with some sort of roof over it (think Sofi, not Superdome), they would draw well.

Ah, but Montreal can “handle” half of those games? Yep, they’ve proven it before.



Tampa's avg attendance 19k
Montreal: 25k

Montreal baseball failed due to the owners not the fans

and can only come close to selling out their stadium when they are on top of the league

they only sell out when they are playing a team that travels well or when it's the playoffs. It's quite sad how often the Titans have a huge contingent of visiting fans at their home games

Idk. I just moved here two years ago but nobody goes to games and they are just never talked about. Even in the middle of the season it's still all Lightning and Bucs.

Some of the guys I work with will swear they are fans have all kinds of Rays gear but will then admit they haven't been to a game in years or watched one all season.
