That's pretty good if they can average that all season. Orlando and San Antonio are holding up their end of the bargain, but
Salt Lake, Memphis, and Arizona are abysmal.


So is Bham IMO

Meh, 17k is alright if they can keep it steady. But 10, 11, 12 thousand, that's really bad.

I wonder what the attendance will be for Atlanta since they have the smallest stadium in the league with a 24,000 capacity.

It should look good on TV if they can get near 20k, but word on the street says that won't be the case...

AAF fans are making more excuses:

https://www.reddit.com/r/aafb/comments/ ... ay_10412/
It's amazing that people think that 10k is a bad number for a debuting minor league football team. [Drawing 10k], that's gotta be seen as a success...


I looked up the old UFL, and their average was in that neighborhood-10k. If this is our low that's pretty respectable.

The UFL failed and it averaged 15k, not 10k...

...Achieving 10k in their inaugural season is pretty good.


And many are questioning if it was even 10k, including SamTheRam28:
No way it was 10k. Just like SD wasn't 20k. And Memphis wasn't 11k. And Phoenix wasn't 11k. I wonder what the actual numbers have been so far.

Abysmal.
The San Diego game looks worse. At least 10k looks better in a 25k stadium.

Especially now that Vegas will be sitting at the Big Boys table. Sure, their newest team will be a bad team, but at least they know that they will have that team for 20 years.

Thankfully it's a smaller stadium (36K), but yeah, the three nearest teams have all draw pretty poorly so far. San Antonio clearly has a solid fan base but doubt their fans would make the trip.

It's possible they're scoping out Vegas for expansion but with the Raiders coming to town it doesn't seem like a great fit.
RIP Xtreme; forever champions
