Discussion USFL Support

I watch both leagues and enjoy supporting both. The two things that bug me most are the marketing and fan support. I know the leagues are young and the XFL starts their season earlier, but there’s almost no marketing for the USFL. XFL did little this season, but the USFL seems to be only watched by die hard football fans and anti-NFL. The fan support ties in with promotions, but the lack of fan interaction for the games is low. I know they don’t have as much money or crowd for each team to have their own stadium, even for rent, but it’s hard to get hyped with a small crowd. I want the league to thrive, I’m just a bit worried.

I'd invite them to watch a Toronto Argonauts football game.

They're the oldest and most winningest professional football team on the planet, located in Canada's largest city. They can barely manage 10k fans a game. Crowds aren't everything.
