Attendances 2023

2 23?

 

February 2023

 

I tought it was Attendances 2023.

Isn't it better to have a thread for the year?

Anyways, excellent attendances!

 

Rose Bowl Game was moved to July 4th

 

Excellent week average, is this the best week average ever for these many games?

 

Just think what it would've been if the weather had cooperated in LA.

 

Assuming the LA attendance was going to be around 70,000, that would have bumped the average up to 32,890.

 

Someone modify the title from Attendance 2 23 to Attendance 2023

Oh yeah that makes way more sense than my dumbass answer.

 

We could have had 3 games above 65k which might have been a first.

 

For the first time ever in @MLS history, two teams on the same day had an attendance of 65k+ 👏🏟 pic.twitter.com/iLeem5sOIA

Could have been 3 if the weather gods permitted it :-(

 

Who knew?
They spent decades trying to sell soccer to City slickers up north… and it’s the rednecks down south that are breaking attendance records

well done!

 

Atlanta beat the "unbeatable" Cosmos attendance record... who could have predicted THAT?

 

Just out of curiosity, does any team other than NYCFC do dynamic pricing?

 

I believe the Sounders do.

 

Dynamic pricing is industry standard these days.

 

Either the team does this and keeps the money or it goes to scalpers.

 

What is dynamic pricing?

 

It’s like betting lines. If a ticket is hot, as the supply gets lower, prices go up. If a ticket isn’t selling, the price goes down.

Think kind of like Priceline and those companies.

 

There's really no set ticket price per se. Everything is based on particulars (who they're playing, date, etc).
For example:
--A seat in section 205 vs Miami on 3/11 will run $75 a pop, because it's opening day.
--That same seat vs DC United a week later is going for $55.
--Fast forward to 9/16 when the Red Bulls come to Yankee Stadium and that same seat is going for $95.

True, but there is a huge market for local MLB, NBA and NHL teams. There is no market for NYCFC tickets.

 

I'm not sure on MLS prices, but when I still lived in DC the Caps were doing dynamic pricing as early as 2008. Here at Texas Tech they do dynamic pricing for football, men's and women's basketball, and baseball that I know of. I would honestly be surprised if there's an MLS team that isn't doing dynamic pricing yet.

 

I was about to say that as well. Oregon was doing this for Football and Basketball 20 years ago

 

Your post seems to indicate that there is varying demand for different games. That's what dynamic pricing is trying to optimize.
