I'm sure a lot of players on the Rams and 49ers played in front of more people in their high school days...
Sure, the 49ers suck but this is a storied franchise with 5 Super Bowl Championships.
The Bills haven't been to the playoffs since 1999, have zero Super Bowl victories yet our fans have continually sold out that beautiful stadium in Orchard Park, NY no matter what. Even at the end of the year in crappy weather with the playoffs out of sight, Bills fans still show up with 40 to 50 thousand people strong.
Why?
Because going to a football game in Buffalo is all about the tailgating party, football, friends and family. We're a tightly knit community that likes to party and have a good time in the middle of winter.
The official attendance for last night's game at Levi's Stadium was 70,178.
Tongue in Cheektowaga...
A picture is worth 60,000 empty seats.
So what the heck happened to the San Francisco 49ers fan base?
Levi's Stadium is 45 miles southeast of San Francisco in the heart of Silicon Valley.
Is it the location of the stadium? Is it the fact that it was built in a way that the sun roasts everyone so equally?
The 49ers had a really good thing going at Candlestick Park. When the team wasn't good, they still had good crowds of fans at their games, even in the rain filled seats full of yellow and red.
45 miles is a long way to go on top of whatever travel time fans had in year's past.
If the Bills moved to Fredonia, NY....
That would add on about 1 hour of drive time. Is that the cause of such low attendance?
I don't think that is the main problem.
The main problem is this:
Limiting tailgating: no beer kegs, loud music, and playing sports (games of catch) in the parking lot.
You're not allowed to throw a football in the parking lot in Santa Clara, CA because the people that run the city are mostly communists.
For some odd reason I don't think they have an RV parking lot either...that would be too much fun and too much freedom for the peasants to enjoy.
I thought the liberal democratic people's republic of California was all for having a good time and letting people live free?
I think the main reason why Levi's Stadium is mostly empty is because the people can't tailgate and have a good time without worry.
If you can't throw a football to your friend, son, daughter, husband, wife, etc....then why in the hell go to the game at all?
