[QUOTE="Makos, post: 843899, member: 74493"] As far as sports participation & sports involvement per-capita it's very good. But general spectator numbers are very sparse domestically. In Europe, supporting your club & team is just a way of life. Out here it's a part of life, there's passion and pride, but it's very different. There's definitely a bandwagon thing going on here. If a team is winning, it will get the crowds. I think back to the All Whites, when they qualified for the 2010 world cup. Prior to the qualifiers they would get a couple of hundred spectators a match, but when they looked like qualifying every man and their dog showed up. Now since they're back to not looking like making the world cup, they get very little support. [/QUOTE]
