All the way out on the West Coast visiting Anaheim/Irvine, CA up from San Diego. I’m walking through the mall and I look in the Hollister’s window (I don’t shop there) but I see they have college gear. So I walk into the store and look around, what do you know? All west coast teams besides one team 🙌🏾

The whole “Miami has no fans” thing is just dumb and wrong. Scroll through the comments section on any news story about college football and it’s half Miami fans, and just as many Miami haters. We’re all people want to talk about.

We have more fans nationwide than Texas. I guarantee that.

What hurts our perception is a.). our lack of stadium and that people in Miami don’t go to games when we’re playing the bottom tier ACC games, meaning you see a lot of teal on TV.
B.). Our conference and the ****** matchups that result and C.) we **** the bed and lose to teams we shouldn’t so that hurts us with casuals and even more with locals

We are 26th so far for average attendance this year. It’s not that bad. Those old college stadiums with the bleachers are definitely visually better than the individual teal seats.

Yeah the layout of Hard Rock doesn't look great on TV. There's a whole corner section that's empty by design and then the big sofa section in the club area that just looks sparse even when it's full.

As an OOS canes fan that used to go to games all the time…it’s C why I don’t

We’ve sucked. Not really into overpaying for flights hotels and tickets to be stuck in a stadium while we **** ourselves against weak ACC competition when I can just change the channel at home

Even last year wanting to see Cam the team was a mirage and I canceled trips at the last minute

you’re right though whenever we are traveling and I’ve got something Miami on, someone stops me to say something (mostly good sometimes not) no matter what city. It’s a unique fanbase for sure.

Miami has plenty of fans, just small alumni and student section. But general fans are pretty big
 
Haven't ordered anything from Hollister since High School and then same thing happened like 6 months ago. Was walking through the mall and saw and Mannequin in the window with a Canes T and Hat on. Walked in and bought one of each lol. Decent priced and actually some fire pieces.
