Message: [QUOTE="HtownOrange, post: 764719, member: 622"] Add: The south had nothing to do on Saturdays for the past 100+ years. The big school was all they had to entertain them. No baseball teams, no NFL teams, no pro hoops, etc. It really is not difficult to consider that just 40-50 years ago the populations in the south were far small in comparison to the north. The north has been developed much longer and has many activities to do on the weekends. Also, Syracuse has a population of about 160K with a metro of 600K. Getting 50K in the Dome is a very large % of the local population. Even the Giants only seat 85K+ in a city with 8M+ and metro of more than 12M. [/QUOTE]
