While as the wings already have a winner and they can't even fill their barn.
Pretty pathetic if you ask me , or at the very least shows just how lacking wings fans are when it comes to appreciating what the wings have accomplished.
Either way the suggestion that some how wings fans would support an event like this is lacking at best and truelly un informed when the numbers to back the declining interest in the wings is right there staring one in the face.
It just go's to show imo that wings fans can't even appreciate a winner and are dis interested in the wings on a whole .

Right, the economy has nothing to do with it. Wings fans must be disinterested.
Declining interest is not what is happening for the Wings. The Wings consistently draw more people to stadiums that have a hard time filling. A clear indicator that the economy has more to do with it. And the Wings still averaged 90% capacity, and over 18,000 people. Some of the other stadiums don't even seat 18,000, much less get that many to attend. The Wings were still top 10 in ticket revenue. Why do they always have to be top 3 for people to be satisfied? Why are you too slow and ignorant to accept the fact that the economy is terrible right now? And don't give me the bull**** about how the other sports stadiums always fill up, because 1. Thats not even true, and 2. Those sports are more popular in the States to begin with.
And you still are refusing to acknowledge that this is an event that occurs only once a year, and really only once in a lifetime for the people in the area. Definitely would be no problem filling up.
But this is like trying to teach kindergartens calculus: it just ain't gunna get through.
