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.

UFL is the only game in town. Let’s be honest. Attendance could and should be better. I like the city, but Bham should have better attendance that what it has had. Jmo

I don't disagree about attendance but at the end of the day, lack of interest in Spring football is a pretty universal thing, regardless of what other pro sports leagues exist

Also, uh Alabama is right down the road. To say “it’s the only game in town” is to not functionally understand Alabama.
