CaolinaJoe Posted August 11, 2004 Share Posted August 11, 2004 WOW, I live in #360. But i'll bet you on race weekend's its #1.Outside of the racetrack all we have is an A-Ball team for the Chisox, Kannapolis Intimidators. Maybe the occasional county fair kinda thing.

MilTownMVP Posted August 12, 2004 Share Posted August 12, 2004 29... I guess it could be worse.

winters in buffalo Posted August 13, 2004 Share Posted August 13, 2004 As you get past the top 50, it falls off fast.How did they come up with these results, anyway? I mean, Niagara Falls is at 145... that's in the top half. I can't even think of anything there that meets the criteria. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See Red Posted August 13, 2004 Share Posted August 13, 2004 When will Denver get the recognition it deserves? It should certainly be higher than 12.The Avalanche have the longest consecutive sellout streak of ANY professional sports team.The city is getting pumped about Denver Nuggets basketball, and the atmospehere at those games were amazing. The Broncos always sellout and have a huge waiting list for season tickets. Not to mention, Elways induction marked the first ever time the stadium was sold out for the ceremony (I believe) and it was 75% Elway/Broncos fans. And they say no player has ever had more people fly into Canton from elsewhere to see his induction that Elway.The Rockies have been among the teams with the best attendance in the league despite having only made the playoffs once in their history, and having been out of the race by the all-star break countless times in the past few years.The NLL's Colorado Mammoth were the leagues top revenue producing team, and sold out just about every game.

habsfannova Posted August 13, 2004 Share Posted August 13, 2004 The Avalanche have the longest consecutive sellout streak of ANY professional sports team. No way. Absolutly no way that is true. The rest of your post was great, but Green Bay, New York Giants, tons of others have longer ones I think... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slapshot Posted August 13, 2004 Share Posted August 13, 2004 I found it shocking that Lowell was even on the list at #329. Usually it's lumped in with Boston as a suburb, less than 30 miles away.What's more shocking is that Lowell wasn't even close to last on the list. Poor Saint John, NB. Beautiful friendly city with nothing left as far as pro teams. Back-to-Back Fatal Forty Champion 2015 & 2016 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here is an article from 11/06/03 discussing the streak:Avalanche Active Sellout Streak Reaches 400 Thursday NightThe current active sellout streak of 400 consecutive games is the longest recorded streak in NHL history and the longest active streak in all of major professional sports.And here is an article with the current streak length:TV deal won't affect impasseIt?s the rival Colorado Avalanche who claim a current sellout streak of 434 games, including the playoffs. That NHL-record streak goes back to November 1995, the franchise?s first season in Denver. "If things have gone wrong, I'm talking to myself, and you've got a wet towel wrapped around your head."

jkrdevil Posted August 13, 2004 Share Posted August 13, 2004 Yes, bit that's because play 33 more home games a year than Green Bay or the Giants. The Giants still have people on their waiting list from back when they played in Yankee Stadium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
