We are about midway through the 2016 season for FC Dallas, and while the product on the field has been pretty good, it’s time to face the bitter truth:
Attendance stinks.
Despite front office promises of good changes after season ticket price increases during the offseason, announced sellouts have looked nothing of the sort. While bouts of bad weather have certainly marred some matches, games featuring international teams have gotten more butts in the seat than an exciting, young roster who is tossing in goals and playing decent soccer. A huge chunk of the stadium is roped off and under construction, and yet it look like a ghost town out there.
