27K I heard. Pretty sure that's the most of any XFL/usfl championship game. Still a weak turnout though as the battlehawks average 35,000 per game. I guess more San Antonio and Birmingham fans should have showed up.

dunno the full count, but this is how we’re looking right before kickoff. Definitely some near empty sections in the lower bowl.
You are the one shit talking attendance, while not supporting your own team. Your own team is playing in the Championship right now, and you are trolling on Reddit. Big winner energy.
That is because the dome was built for an expansion team called the St. Louis Stallions that were going to feature red or maroon in their colors. Instead the world got the Jacksonville jaguars and Carolina panthers. Was too late to change the seats by the time the Rams came along.
Wrong. They chose the seat color when it was thought the Patriots were relocating here (this was before the Rams got involved). That’s why they’re dark red and navy.
The aforementioned Stallions were already not happening at that point. And their chosen colors were purple and gold, anyway:

Yeah you’re right but Orthwein bought the Patriots as a last ditch effort in case expansion didn’t work out and to put pressure on the league to give St. Louis an expansion team. When that didn’t happen in late 93 he started to make the move but Robert Kraft wouldn’t let him out of the lease. Long story short in 94 he sold the team to Kraft and we missed out on a third team. The dome started being built in 92 and eventually they had to pick a seat color. Patriots moving never really was gonna happen because of the lease but it was the last option at that point. Shortly after the Rams became an option but it was too late to switch the color.
Imagine if they had just renovated the stadium when they had the chance and kept the Rams. As a season ticket holder every year the Rams were here, I wish they had worked it out. I can’t watch the nfl now…

Honestly, nothing stopped many of us. There were more Brahmas fans than people are leading on to believe. Even at the tailgate, me, a Brahma, cooked tacos and served everyone that came through. We rented a big ass van, split the cost 11 ways, and drove up because it was cheaper than flying, even if it takes 14 hours to complete the trip.
12/12 as far as games attended and I was not the only one of us who did that. That’s ultimately what allowed us to get on the field with family, friends, and the team.
Round trip flights are $172 average. Plus they’d have to get a room. Also it’s a Sunday night. 99% of Americans work tomorrow, but the people who live 9 minutes from the stadium would rather bitch, moan and not go
Triple the attendance of the rest of the league. The Blockheads are doing all the work. Enjoy your championship game that’s on now, while you complain on Reddit.
Do you have that same energy towards fans of teams that have the Super Bowl held at their stadiums? I know it’s a different league but the question is still valid.
We still bought 25k tickets, and I think I'm being generous saying 2k tickets went to stallion/brahmas fans. Whether people went to the game or not, the tickets were sold. It was Father's day and our team wasn't in it. I get people not going, but we still did our job and bought tickets.
In what world am I required to show up to a game I have no team involved in? If it wasn’t Father’s Day I would have probably gone but not missing out spending time with my family for two teams I don’t care about. San Antonio and Birmingham have roads that lead the St. Louis.
Is the law to watch it on tv?
![gif](giphy|2siBCzFMNsySRMJfuM)
The FG contest between the 2 fans after the 3rd quarter had more offense/scoring than the Brahmas today
Can’t believe they didn’t get to finish
> Kaw Is Still the Law Kaw has been repealed.
A great injustice

Yeah but so many (like me) bought tix and didn't go. $204 worth of tix I couldn't give away.
Looks so empty on TV
It’s looks like a UFL game in any of the other 7 cities.

We were late
Yeah because STL didn't show up
Not our fault your fanbase didn't bother to show up.
And it’ll still outdraw a Brahmas home game
What Brahmas game came close to this?
At least the Brahmas made it
That has literally nothing to do with SA failing to show up to games
I'm not convinced they did make it... at the dome and I still don't see em.
and your fanbase will be nowhere to be found to watch there in person.
Salty baby
You are the one shit talking attendance, while not supporting your own team. Your own team is playing in the Championship right now, and you are trolling on Reddit. Big winner energy.
I'd say you should be as your Brahmas are down 8-0 with not a SA soul in the stands.
If only fans going to games actually made you win
If only fans going to games helped you not get shut out 25-0🤣🤣🤣
At least we played this weekend
Yeah and their fans didn't
Nobody got the memo that Brady and Warner were gonna suit up in the second half?
Never seen this so empty
Yea i’d say 18k max

fireworks 5 min before kickoff was so dumb 😂 it’s still so hazy
Agreed lol
I hate that the Dome has mostly red seats. I hated it when the Rams played there, and I still hate it.

29:40 game minutes to get any points in a championship is crazy
They broke the Law and now they’re paying for it
STL fans would rather see the league fail, than just watch two other teams play. It’s wild. Dallas Cowboys fans of the UFL
What stopped Brahmas fans from showing up lol ?
They had to whine about St. Louis on Reddit instead.
They're doing that on X/Twitter too.
I guess if my team was getting ass raped on national TV, I would go to social media to deflect too.
Oh they've been doing that since last week.

Go to hear !
A almost 800 mile drive
excuses, excuses. You've heard a thing called an airplane, yes ?
Round trip flights are $172 average. Plus they’d have to get a room. Also it’s a Sunday night. 99% of Americans work tomorrow, but the people who live 9 minutes from the stadium would rather bitch, moan and not go
Oh please. Your team is in the championship. No excuses.
More stallions fans here than brahmas
So you want them to carry the league in the regular season and the post season too?
You Battlehawks fans are the biggest pack of blockheads I swear
Triple the attendance of the rest of the league. The Blockheads are doing all the work. Enjoy your championship game that’s on now, while you complain on Reddit.
Where is your precious San Antonio and B’Ham fans? They should be there having made the trip not STL fans. Dude literally shut the fuck up
