Attendance ? Fins Vs Canes

[Mi.Cane]

Watching on tv it seems like the fins always have a much bigger crowd than the canes. For those who live down there, is that accurate and why?

I live in Michigan. Been to HRS for the canes. Only road games for dolphins.

When the dolphins were trash people still packed the stadium when they played it made no sense

fins - more fans by a lot (remember all the gators and noles from miami are still fins fans not canes fans).

Nah. When dolphins struggled the stadium looked like our attendance.

Makes sense. Thanks.

Many filling the seats are fans of the visiting team. Transplants from all over especially the NE. I remember in the OB, **** near half the seats were filled by Jets, Buffalo and NE fans. Been that way from day one.

Never got the argument that the Canes don’t draw crowds because there is so much to do in South Florida. Doesn’t make sense. if that were true, Hard Rock would be empty when the Dolphins played.

Dolphins attract the whole area, Canes attract alumni and then those that don’t root for the schools up north

 

[SayWhat]

What attendance issues for us? It was reported at 57k.

That’s something not mentioned enough that there’s probably more fans of other teams both college and pro - that live in SFL.

A lot of terrible towels in that stadium tonight.

Yep. Happens every home game. Scan the stands when the Jets, Bills, Pats or other NE teams are there and you’ll see a bunch of their fans.

 

[The U is back to work]

Because it’s the NFL and a lot of corporate tickets

College isn’t going to draw like NFL

But it shows when that place is packed it’s just an awesome place.

 

[Go Canes!!]

The stadium is packed because the Dolphins are putting a well coached, exciting product on the field.

The end.

You’re comparing a school with 16,000 students to a NFL team with 10 times the fans are you kidding?

Mario needs six more years to get his guys in

Nah. When dolphins struggled the stadium looked like our attendance.

But the dolphins still aren't that good though. They were barely above .500 last year and 3-3 this year.

 

[gogeta4]

this is a dolphins town.

we could suck and that place would have good crowds....

it incorporates fans alumni of all the state schools hence them honoring Gators ALL THE TIME IN THE STADIUM.

Rarely mentioned. It’s literally a newer city than most with teams in the NFL, and people want to move here.

Don’t think there’s any Dolphins fans willingly living in Buffalo or Pittsburgh.
