Message: [QUOTE="sun, post: 4536015, member: 11664"] I don't think that it should be worrisome that some spectator sports aren't considered to be very popular or as popular as they could be. Folks today simply have too many other outside interests to be motivated enough to attend. While many who do attend or stream may have enough desire to see the activity continue to remain financially viable, modern society is set up for it to be mostly supported by commercial interests. And in the case of WCBB, it's supported largely by the Title 9 gov't mandate, tax Dollars, endowments & gifts. Most folks are contributing without even wanting to, and that goes for college students too through their tuition & activity fees that they end up borrowing money to attend college. To have a fan base is wonderful, but to not have a fan base doesn't mean that the sport is suffering. Most all WCBB games are being streamed anyway. If the primary purpose of WCBB is to obtain a degree then without a doubt the sport is a huge success with or without the fans. An Olympic sport like BB is mostly just another industry & labor market that creates & provides jobs. [/QUOTE]
