Discussion Dear Mike Repole
So you’re demanding 5,000 Stallions season ticket purchases in the next few days, and then you promise “better marketing” AFTER that? Forgive me if I find that a little @$$-backward, Mike.
How about a month of solid advertising and then see how many purchases are made? Otherwise this sounds like Stan Kroenke saying he’ll keep the Rams in St. Louis if only the city spends a billion on the dome, when in fact he decided he was leaving years before.
I’ve talked to friends and family in Birmingham, big football fans, who didn’t even know the Stallions existed, and it would certainly be easy to not know given the near-total absence of marketing! If you truly believe in Birmingham as you say, let’s see it. Give the city a chance. Really get the word out and allow a little more time, and I think you’ll get the response you want.

You had since 2022 to actually show up. I’m tired of “well tickets went up 500%” when I constantly saw tickets in the $10-18 range or there was a craft fair in town, it was partly cloudy and 82 degrees, it was during my 11am church service. Nothing but excuses. He’s had success with everything he’s been involved with. This is a business at the end of the day and something needs to change or there won’t be a league for long. He’s actually listening to fans and communicating which hasn’t been done at all since merger.
