Maybe with PSLs and such, going to the game has become, more and more, only for the few people that can afford a lot? | |

Owners don't care about that. Revenue is the main factor here.

Maybe NFL could even build (or buy closed out) theaters and renovate them into "Satellite Stadiums" that hold Sunday/Monday/Thursday games, and that way they keep the concession money in house. Other days could be filled with feature films, especially in the summer months, and probably throw in NFL Films days too, where "Best of " regional team games are shown. In Skins country for example, a RFK size stadium, plus regional theater satellites in a few Richmond counties, PG County, Alexandria and Silver Springs, would probably all draw capacity crowds, and make the "at the stadium" experience better. Satellite theaters make even more sense in rural cities where NFL fans rarely get to experience the feel of live action. Again, maybe none of this is plausible, but I think it's worth considering over these mega-stadiums. My guess is that losing the concession money is the biggest reason that stadiums won't shrink, and I don't know a solution to that. | |

When your team is a regular on a site called "Fans Against Violence", that's probably not a good thing. http://www.fansagainstviolence.org/tag/oakland-raiders/

| Re: Around the NFL Offseason 2013 Why not? Just think about all the popular old steel mills that have been abandoned since the 70's that you can explore? Or the gritty assholishness of the Steeler fans? "6 rings baby, oh yeah best franchise of all time in the NFL, plus we got Sid the Kid and the Pirates are in 1st place! Greatest city of all time!" Who wouldn't want to go visit that? |
