    and all those football lines and numbers were distracting while watching too... maybe in some small way that contributed.

    BTW, I can't believe that San Antonio averages 10k attendance per game... that's unreal. But playing on a football field is downright lame.

    That's some sour grapes right there. That's what that is.

    Its just for one season. They will have a real field next year. IF the Spurs had not got the politicians involved a good chance that the original stadium would of been built on time.

    Yeah, I'm nowhere near being fond of gridiron lines in soccer, but for an expansion team that's working on getting a proper field it's not worth caring about.

    If we don't make that better than number here in NY, I'm going to kick myself. (Sorry, forgot this is a Carolina section). The numbers are getting stronger and the only way is up!

    WakeMed has a capacity of 10,000. I assume there is also standing room.

    It isn't 2012 anymore (certainly happy about that).

    I'm too lazy about making a new thread and the Mods are always yelling at me about that...

    Well, someone needs to let them know-- there ISN'T a 2013 thread. Board apathy drives away potentially interested supporters!

    What's that dark knight fellow's name? Someone should tell him.

    BTW, the Railhawks are now at the top of the table!

    I wasn't singling you out- I think we need a new thread, but I don't want to get you yelled at either :)

    It used to be 7600, then they expanded it to 10K, with a brief stop around 8K along the way that sold out when the LA Galaxy came to town.

    If they pulled 6700 for a regular season game this week, I am guessing this is an upward trend.

    I never saw it listed at 7600. The number of physical seats (or bench locations) was around 6800 until last summer's expansion.

    They did occasionally (2003 Women's College Cup, 2006 USMNT/Jamaica game come to mind) put temporary seats in the north end. They did, on a couple occasions, (Monterrey/RailHawks and DC United (Freddy Adu)/Rochester Rhinos) top 7k with SRO tickets.
