There's just no way you can even sugercoat that.<br /><br />I just assumed a Costa Rica or Honduras type team would sell the place out in a final. I'm shocked. I thought Jamaica would bring in WAY more than 14,432. I don't know, I might have esimated 40-50K for that match.

My yanks played Costa Rica for the Final in 2002. the location was the Rose Bowl...only 14,432 showed. Yes the sport has grown since 2002 but not that much. <br /> The yanks vs. Brazil, Argentina even Ireland would all be close to sell outs..and these would be friendlies....James Lagrangehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03973335727411500406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5657089294824042346.post-1660966381559608222011-05-04T16:10:23.681-04:002011-05-04T16:10:23.681-04:00*effectiveness of American teams in the CONCACAF C...*effectiveness of American teams in the CONCACAF Champions League, which I showed you earlier has increased significantly the last two YEARS*<br /><br />I wonder why I put teams...Lorricnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5657089294824042346.post-52619197255865304982011-05-04T16:02:13.662-04:002011-05-04T16:02:13.662-04:00I have a question for you.

I don't know enough to know if it would, but I know at least early on the US matches often don't even come close to selling out.Lorricnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5657089294824042346.post-19413396663185610422011-05-04T16:00:21.971-04:002011-05-04T16:00:21.971-04:00You're looking in the wrong place for that inf...You're looking in the wrong place for that information. The Gold Cup is ruled by too many factors. For instance if Mexico fell in the quarter finals, attendance would take a hit.

Can you pay to just watch one? I wouldn't want to have to pay for a 2nd game that I don't want to pay for.<br /><br />For instance I noticed for the Copa Centroamericana double and triple headers this year that the stadium would be almost empty for the games involving other teams, then it would fill up for Panama's game.<br />Lorricnoreply@blogger.com
