NFL makes enough off TV they can get by, but everybody else relies on attendance, and NOBODY (but the Rangers) are putting enough butts in the seats to cover costs.

Temporary government restrictions are the least of our concerns when it comes to attendance IMO, I've seen some pretty thin crowds the last few years, especially late in the season.

Losing causes attendance to drop you say?? Really? Thanks for the update Captain Obvious! What's also confusing me is I don't see how your comment isn't relevant to my comment. Are you telling me that government "oversite" has not reduced the football/basketball revenue at YSU? If so, I must respectfully disagree.

Well, the government restricts us to 3600 attendees in our stadium, we’re only averaging 2,063 per home game this year.

Restrictions discourage attendance. And the people who come to tailgate are.... let me count..............-0-
That discourages attendees too. Government restrictions restrict attendance. If you dispute that fine, we
will have to agree to disagree.
Double ET:
This government restrictions are political ploy to control the citizens because they were not based on science or balance of collective considerations and/or various aspects of the society.
The restrictions effectively killed the ticket sales on game day “walk up” attendance became zero.
My daughter told me that WV Governor announced that all restaurants are now allow to open @ 100% capacity for in door dining. However, the tables must still be 6 feet apart and no more than 7 people per table. So much for full capacity.
Because my daughter has an infant, her party had to sit in two separate tables, six feet apart. Really!
As Dr. Fauci said today, we still should not eat in door at a restaurant after full vaccination. What an idiot.
Kandrase:
Look I’m honestly not trying to make a political statement, I’m just saying that we have bigger issues to deal with when it comes to attendance than restrictions during a wierd spring season. I’m way more concerned with what attendance looks like in the fall.
Though it is kind of amazing that it’s so low considering it’s the only football being played now, don’t even have tOSU to blame
