Sports Suffering Cities (updated thru '19 Washington Nationals)

[BigEd76]

Philly was the only city to have all of its pro sports teams reach the playoffs this year... 

[ice grillin you]

is that for cities with four teams or all cities?

[BigEd76]

all of the cities with at least 2 teams, so I'm leaving out ones like Orlando, Utah, Calgary, etc.

If the Patriots had made it, all of Boston's teams would have reached too.

Streak to be broken by the Sixers?

[MDS]

[ice grillin you]

they dont have an nba team but im sure the lil guy can provide you with the numbers

[Seabiscuit36]

19,865/game in 2008, better than only the Marlins and Royals. It's 51.6% in percentage full terms since it's a small ballpark.

I saw them beat the Cubs there on Memorial Day weekend... they had great attendance for that game but it was half Cubs fans and over a holiday. It's too bad the team sucks so bad because the park is the best I've been to.

i think theyre pretty good.

no nba team + city with no night life = good tv ratings

[ice grillin you]

If tonight's games are any indication (and we don't need an indication to guess about the Sixers), it might not be that cool.
