That's a thin crowd at cavernous Commonwealth.

It used to be that Edmonton had 35000 minimum every game. The name change seems to have really pissed off that fanbase. Lots of complaints on social media about it. Whether you agree a name change was needed or not, there's no doubt it did turn off a lot of fans. Looks like they won't be back until this team is a Grey Cup contender. The previoius management really did a crap job.

I would wager it has more to do with how poorly the team has done over the last couple of seasons than a name change.

Winning solves a lot of those things.

Yeah agreed. However, a lot of longtime fans were offended. Two years later they still complain on social media claiming they ain't never coming back.

Gonna echo what others have said and suggest the poor team has much more to do with it.  They haven't won a game at home in years!

In my opinion the people promising never to be back were likely not buying tickets anyways. 

Edmonton just flat out sucks and that's going to hurt the ticket sales more than anything else.
