I am wondering if it becoming more like other sports and short attention spans with the need for constant action? Other sports such as football and baseball try to enhance the in stadium experience to keep fans coming because many like myself do not want to deal with traffic and crowds and in addition is the event becomes a blowout the I can just change the channel or go out.
Have the TV ratings declined proportionately with the attendance?
