Congrats to the Breakers on their win last night and to Natasha Dowie on her goal. Any news on Brooke Elby? It looked like she was out cold.
For all the issues with the on field product, Breakers seem the most together of the non MLS teams. DC is kind of there as well although seem in the mindset to prioritize the kids/families at games where Breakers seem to be aware that the adults with expendable income are a priority market if you want to truly continue seeing growth.
I've gone to Spirit games and felt like I was the only mid-20s dude there. I'm sure it's not true, but still.
Seriously? I have no clue where you're sitting, then - I've had Spirit season tickets or a flex pack each year, and every game I've gone to has felt like it's had quite a healthy young adult crowd.
"Flex pack" is general admission. But I agree it depends on where you sit. The lower part of the hill and the R+L sides of the far stands are more families+teams, but the upper part of the hill (beer garden) and middle of the far stands (at or near the Squadron) are definitely the young adult crowd.
