New year, new thread. Sporting KC announces it is moving its April 13 home match vs Lionel Messi and Inter Miami to the NFL venue/Arrowhead. Tickets will start at $65 for general public. #mls— Steven Goff (@SoccerInsider) January 8, 2024
Just under five million dollars for one game if every ticket is $65 for a sellout. Every ticket won't be $65 that's the low end. How many games this year will produce big attendance numbers? . If LAFC and the Galaxy have a repeat in attendance on July fourth, what are the chances another game on the East coast gets the big stadium treatment in 2025? . Miami plays Charlotte on July third at Bank of America Stadium, New England plays Atlanta at Gillette Stadium & Chicago plays Philadelphia at Soldier Field. If these games do much better than usual, MLS might have finally found a holiday to try and own.

9,191 a sellout and a new stadium record for the USMNT in San Antonio (kind of showing how irrelevant cup cupcake is these days)
WTF does attendance at a friendly have to do with the relevance of a USMNT training camp? The purpose of the camp is to get a look at up and coming talent. ******** the fans. We’re the ones who are irrelevant in this equation.
32k in Dallas for Miami at the Cotton bowl. Twitter is going crazy making fun of the "low" attendance, but I actually believe this might be an MLS preseason attendance record.
What does the algorithm have to do with responses to news stories? You read news, you click, you see.
In an environment where the only responses you see are from people who are able to live in the toxic environment created by the algorithm? Quite a lot, I'd say.
You know how most relevant twitter responses are by blue-checkmark people now? Those people paid to be heard more prominently even if they are idiots, which usually are, given that they are paying for twitter. I am talking about people like a Karen #28472 from Missisipistan not a journalist or someone that needs the added relevancy like a Michael Kofman type person.
Interesting @Sportico report today.According to MLS, season ticket sales for the 2024 season are up 15% compared to 2023, with ticket revenue up 25%. StubHub also shared that sales of MLS tickets have increased significantly, seven times larger than in 2023.
