Week 8 AAF Attendance Figures
Orlando @ Memphis- 12,417
- Despite all the Manziel hype. It hasn't really shown much difference in ticket sales. Less fans at this game than last week (13,758)... Memphis has been consistently in this range all season, averaging just under 13 thousand fans per game. A poor showing by this market but not as bad as the others. Memphis has one home game remaining in week 10 against another team eliminated from playoff contention in Atlanta.
San Diego @ Salt Lake City- 8,405
- The best case for relocation if the league moves towards a second season. SLC is a weak tv and football market to begin with, and these numbers bare that out. Their home opener in week 3 drew 10 thousand fans. Since then, they have been in the 8 to 9 thousand range for every home game. Throw in the bush league appearance of not being able to even have the team's logo on the field. This is a team that shouldn't be returning for year 2. Salt Lake's final home game of the season will be in week 10, when they host The Commanders.
Atlanta @ Birmingham- 17,328
- The Iron have been fairly consistent in terms of attendance. With the exception of the week 4 Tornado issues, which saw only 6,000 fans in attendance. The Iron have settled in in this 14 to 17k range. Still below what they should be but way better than Arizona, Salt Lake, Atlanta, Arizona and Memphis. Birmingham finishes their season on the road. So their average regular season attendance for the season was 14,361.
Arizona @ San Antonio- 23,504
- Slight disappointment despite being the league's best drawing team. This is down from last week's high water mark of 30,345. This is the Commanders lowest attended game of the season. The Commanders are at home in week 9 against Memphis. In a 12noon game on CBS. The division title is still up fro grabs. So it's possible that they may not host another game this season. Lost in the ineptitude of Salt Lake, is how poorly Arizona has drawn thus far. Averaging about 9 thousand fans per game, despite being a contender and having great weather.
Thus far, ony 3 teams figure to have a chance to average 20 thousand fans per game. San Antonio, Orlando and San Diego. These are the only 3 teams over 15k per game as well. The league's average attendance per game is currently 15,291.
