Message: [QUOTE="OttoinGrotto, post: 559011, member: 297"] See, I think viewing it as a product is the only way to look at it if you want to increase your fanbase. The group that supports through thick and thin because it's the home town team, that groups static for the most part, not variable. The variable group is the one you want if the static group can't fill the stadium on its own. We know our static group isn't, so we're left with appeals to the variable group, and that group needs to feel confident that the entertainment choice they're making is better than the alternatives. The point anglerman was making is that for a long time SU football was an objectively inferior entertainment choice, but with the new conference and the momentum and excitement over how we ended the season, the choice is now starting to look a lot better. It's fragile though. [/QUOTE]
