The XFL Seattle Dragons are two weeks away from playing their first-ever game Feb. 8 at the D.C. Guardians, and training camp in Houston wrapped up Friday.
XFL commissioner Oliver Luck was in Seattle on Friday, helping promote the league. He said the league would like to average at least 10,000 in attendance, but the hopes are much higher than that in Seattle, which is expecting more than 20,000 for its home opener Feb. 15 against the Tampa Bay Vipers.
Luck said fans should expect about the same number of plays as in an NFL game. It just won’t take as long.
