NICE REPRESENTATION FROM LION FAN

Won 10 games last season, opening day and its an empty stadium. Maybe LA should take their team.

the demographics of the area isn't good. Too many seniors, they just don't like to climb the stands nor sit for 3 hrs in 90+ heat

Same thing with the Rays, I live in Florida and it's just not a good pro sports state. Too many old people who don't really care, and a lot of the younger crowd focuses on college sports.

Miami is different.. But You are definately right.. Central Florida Only cares about 1 football team.. The Gators
 
They probably aren't used to seeing football players wear helmets

The Rays would draw better if they played in Tampa.

The complaint is the trip to St. Pete's over some bridge is why they don't draw shit, and they are locked into that stadium for a while too.
 
Are the Marlins drawing anyone to their games yet? Everytime I see highlights of that team playing home, the stadium looks like a ghost town.

I went to a game at the stadium....desolate. At least some olt timers attend baseball games. But your right, St. Pete was a dumb place for the stadium

I was talking more about the Phins.. Plus the retards who pay money to see Lebron.. Most baseball teams have a hard time selling tickets. The bad Detroit teams throughout time are lucky Detroit fans are so loyal.

The Heat have a lot of fans right now, while the Dolphins usually don't black out it still always seems like the stadium is half empty to me. Most of my family are die hard Dolphins fans and they all complain about the lack of true fans at the games these days. Definitely not like it use to be.

was at the Lion/Dolphin game last year....not a sellout
 
that fucking stadium the fins play in is way out in broward county....like 45-60 minutes outside miami. in my opinion, a horrid place for a stadium. when i saw them play the saints a couple years ago there were a ton of empty seats. i would say the location is a huge part of it. closer to ft lauderdale than miami.
 
I think they figured put it in a area closer to the $$$ of Ft Lauderdale, Boca Raton, etc. Not sure you get the cuban community paying money to see the games or the ghetto of N Miami
 
I could have sworn I heard a lets go Lion chant yesterday. I love to hear our chants on the road. The Red Wings always seem to be able to get it going.
