Maybe continually jacked up salaries being passed onto ticket prices have driven consumers away.  Why spend 200+ on a ticket and concessions for a family of 2 when you can sit in relative splendor in your own home?  I evacuated from NC for hurricane Florence and managed to snag 2 tickets for the Pats game (GREAT game btw).  It was great watching the beatdown but between temps and prices it was insane.  The atmosphere was great but good lord, I couldn't do that for more than one game a year.  Add in losing 4-6 home games a year?  Nah.....i'll stay at home.
