So...fan support


davos

Recommended Posts

My question is how can the organization and team sell out games and increase fan support (minus winning of course)? It finally seems things are looking up for the club (minus the name) and they are currently the hottest team in the NBA. So, what's going to bring all those young bankers to the game?

The pink elephant in the room. This city should be giving way more support to this team as far as attendance goes. The arena is always half empty. We as fans (me included) should be attending more games. Jordan said last year that he understands its a tough balance, he wants more fan support but understands we're going thru an economic crisis right now and people just arent spending money like they used to.

I know you said minus winning but I really think it might be that simple. You can already see the increase in interest by calls to the local sports radio station and even traffic in this forum. I think a playoff home game will be the hottest ticket in town and "the place to be". Be interesting to see if it carries over to the following year though. Sustained winning would go along way for fan support.

It would be nice to have a consistent pro sports team in town.

It really is sad though how few people actually go to the games, especially during the middle of the week. At least lately it really feels like the majority of people there actually care.

Tuesday is a good cheap day to go. They have 10 dollar tickets, 3 dollar beer, and 2 dollar hot dogs. You can get scalped tickets for real cheap out front. Bobblehead night would fill the place up too. People like freebies.

True that, ive gotten two hats, a blanket, a growl towel and a little toy car at some of the games ive gone too.

    • The Falcons have 2 significant offensive line injuries to start the 2025 season. Right tackle Kaleb Mcgary (who is the blindside protector for Penix since he is left-handed) is going to miss significant time, and it's looking more like it may be all season. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/falcons-expect-kaleb-mcgary-to-miss-significant-time https://x.com/BKsquared7/status/1959285822236107013. Also, the top backup and swing tackle, Storm Norton (cool name BTW) is having ankle surgery and may miss half the season. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/falcons-ot-storm-norton-out-6-8-weeks-after-ankle-surgery I don't root for injuries, but its also hard to be too sympathetic given how badly injuries have hit us in recent years. We definitely need to get that W in week 3 for our home opener at BOA. Despite our collective frustration at not being able to attend TC and then having boring preseason games, ultimately the most important objective of the preseason is to enter Week1 healthy, and we have at least done that. Hopefully the depth we think we have at Oline either shines through or isn't needed. Many other teams are in a bad spot with their offensive lines before the season even starts. For once, we aren't in that situation.
    • That roster was billed as a super smart and strong unit for a young QB….until he sucked though.   it didn’t have superstars but it had proven vets that checked well all the safe boxes and it was universally agreed the Panthers were putting him into position to succeed. BY just doesn’t fit a traditional O because he isn’t built like a traditional QB.  And he still doesn’t.   CJ Stroud would have had more success here than Bryce with that cast.   CJ just has the tools that fit the NFL more easily.  Young can find success but I have always argued it would take a Bryce centric plan (which we have never attempted IMO) 
    • looks like the Lions and Bangles should forget about the playoffs, trade everyone they can, and start over.
