Go Woke, Go Broke: NFL Team Plays In Empty Stadium

I don’t give two licks about sports, but people in this country love ball sports—particularly football.

To make people in this country stop attending football games or turn away from the NFL altogether is an achievement that I could never hope to rival.

According to sources, a Carolina Panthers game that took place earlier this month kicked off in a nearly empty stadium.

This is despite the tickets ranging from $0.45-$5.00. That is not a misprint and your glasses are fine; you read those ticket prices correctly. I mean, I hate football, but for 0.45 cents I would have gone!

Sports outlets are blaming the lack of attendance on the fact that the Carolina Panthers made some bad decisions regarding their player roster, but is this really the reason?

Could it have anything to do with the Covid nonsense, the identity politics, or the constant kowtowing? Crappy football team or not, people in the Carolinas will show up to a football game for 0.45 cent tickets.

The Carolina Panthers have always sucked, but they have a rock-solid fan base. I know this because I live in North Carolina.

What could have possibly happened in the minds of people for them not to attend a football game with such rock-bottom prices? That’s really what I want to know. I believe it is because of the wokeness, are people slowly waking up?

Take a look at all these empty seats and let me know if you have seen something similar in your locality:

USA Today attempted to explain away the empty seats as a problem specific only to the Carolina Panthers and due to their viability as a team:

With just four weeks to go in the regular season, the Panthers sit at an NFL-worst 1-12 heading into Sunday’s game against the Atlanta Falcons.

They don’t have their first-round pick next year. They don’t have many stars to build around.

They fired their head coach halfway through the season. Despite playing in a division that will likely send a sub-.500 team to the playoffs, they were the first team in the NFL to be eliminated from playoff contention.

Salty Texan broke down the numbers: “Carolina Panthers vs. Atlanta Falcons: Teams Play in Mostly Empty Stadium Despite Tickets Selling for as Low as $0.45 -GWP The Bank of America stadium has a total capacity of 74,867, meaning the stadium was likely under 10 percent of its total capacity.”

No one really wants to watch the National Felon League anyhow

Daily Star made sure to point out this discrepancy:

The stands for Carolina Panthers’ clash with the Atlanta Falcons were almost empty on Sunday – but the official attendance was still over 70,000.
