from Empty Netters,
Friday’s post with pictures from an EN reader in Atlanta prompted a Thrashers fan to e-mail us with some background information on the lack of fans at Philips Arena:...
There is so much that your readership needs to understand about the state of hockey in Atlanta. It has nothing to do with market, and everything to do with the willingness of fans to pay for a sub-par product. That’s just how Atlanta sports fans are. You or your readership may believe that I am simply making excuses, but all you really need to do is look at how full the arena was in 2006-2007 compared to last season, and now compared to this season.
