This caught my attention: Average game day revenue for the Toronto Argonauts, BC Lions and Montreal Alouettes is up 26 per cent year-over-year through Week 10. Viewership for games involving at least one of these three teams is up 27 per cent in the 25-54 demographic through Week 11. There are also positive signs across the league, with overall game day revenues up 2.3 per cent through Week 10.

Kind of like saying you're still stuck in the mud but at least you aren't going in reverse. That revenue number is not good, not positive. The business side of my family that sells stuff would be changing strategy and trying to figure out how to convert the other metrics indicating interest to $$$ with year over year numbers like that. You think of the amount of money someone like Doman has had to pour in to get even a trickle of growth and it's kind of scary in terms of making that sustainable. I'm not sure how many half million dollar concerts or six figure CNE deals he wants to front to sell a few football tickets. JCon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't worry too much, the LOL'ks ate single handedly bringing that average down... once they get back to being competitive, those numbers will go up considerably.

If Edmonton was competitive and Calgary got the stadium that team deserved, the league average would jump by 10k.

17to85 Posted August 24, 2023 Report Share Posted August 24, 2023 New stadium isn't likely to help calgary that much. It's all apathy when it comes to them. Stickem, JohnnyAbonny and Bigblue204 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnyAbonny Posted August 24, 2023 Report Share Posted August 24, 2023 Honestly, if you just told everyone in Calgary it was NFL I’m sure at least an extra 10k would show up and not know the difference. 17to85 and Bigblue204 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JCon Posted August 24, 2023 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2023 (edited) Not everyone is going to be successful in this league. Yes, Argos and Lions are up but the Stamps and Elks are down. Shouldn't be a zero-sum game but this is the CFL and so we just move from crisis to crisis.

I do remember them being up there. Especially during divisional games. Stadium being a **** box, lack luster teams who seemed to fold at the worst times (playoffs) and an owner who apparently just doesn't give a **** has brought them to what they are now.

Calgary can be a good football city but look at all the former Stamp players around the league. The team can't keep free agents & fans feel that the owner Murray Edwards takes them for granted. Apathy has set in. It's sad to see a team who once had 30,000 season tickets 20 years ago only has just a few thousand today. If they had an owner who cared they'd have 25-30,000 per game. 16 hours ago, 17to85 said: Been trending down for a while while being one of the top teams in the league consistently.

I say necessarily as you're not wrong but there's also other circumstances at play here with bad ownership. Jesse and Bigblue204 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
