The Sprint Center is getting ready...

Wow! Thanks for the pics! Can't wait for the return of Arena Football! It's a shame that due to Sprint Center's busy March schedule, the Command will start the first 4 weeks of the season on the road (including a bye week). The Home opener is Saturday, April 9th.

Couldn't we have gone over to Kemper to at least get a home game in there. Oh well...GO COMMAND! Can't wait for the season!

I know this won't be an issue next year since the Big 12 Tournament won't be here, but couldn't we have gone over to Kemper to at least get a home game in there. Oh well...GO COMMAND! Can't wait for the season!

Any idea on how many people they can expect to average this year at games? I never made it to a brigade game. I'm not really down on the command name, but that would hardly stop me from attending.

The best attendance average last year was Tampa Bay at just over 15K a game. No one else averaged over 12K. The Brigade averaged almost 13K in 2008. I think we can easily see 13K a game if not more since the team was gone for 2 years. Its a whole new team, new coaches, new ownership. It pretty much like getting a new team.

The Sprint Center holds 17,297 for Arena Football.

Anybody know if any other channels will pick up the games on TV besides the NFL Network?

As of right now I do not believe anything is in place for the Command.

I guess the games will be broadcast online. Hey, better than nothing.

Command lose their season opener against the Dallas Vigilantes, 53-46.

Next game: Friday, March 18th @ San Jose.

yep. They lost last night to San Jose, 60-57. At least they got some fight in them, but are 0-2 in the young season.

Hopefully a big crowd will show for the home opener tomorrow TODAY! And hopefully the team gets their first win.

Posted: **Sun Apr 10, 2011 12:06 am**

Well, they got the win. But, as of right now, I can find nothing that says what the attendance was.

Posted: **Sun Apr 10, 2011 12:48 am**

Can't say there were more than 5,000 at Sprint Center. The crowd was still loud, but alot of empty seats in certain areas. Obviously a still relatively foreign sport + gas prices + a 0-3 record are all factors.

Command are now 1-4 after last night's loss to Arizona. Next game is @ Chicago next Friday.

given the crowd maybe a move to the Independence Center is is the cards.

As of right now they are averaging around 4,800 a game. I really wouldn't be surprised if they don't even make it past this season. And if they do, there is no way they can stay at the sprint center.

I really wouldn't be surprised if that happend. Or maybe a move back to Kemper?

Maybe they need to bring the Brigade name back or do a little more marketing, i don't think a lot of people realize an arena team is back in action

This year, they are averaging 4172 fans, that is awful, even though the economy is bad, they should be at least averaging 7-8k
Look at previous years, that is better then some NBA team averages
2006 - 15234
2007 - 11894
2008 - 12828
