The juice just isn't worth the squeeze. I think it'll hamper attendance and slow growth of the fan base. The best way to get someone into wrestling is getting them to a match. At the same time any revenue would be inconsequential. Your projections are way off. Average attendance isn't 5k it's more like 3k and students would never have to pay. That's under $100k.

My concern as a fan is how many folks would travel to Dallas for that? -- GreenvilleVT Sep 25, 2023 at 01:16 PM ET

Not many, but compared with non-revenue sports traveling -- Wilmington Hokie Sep 26, 2023 at 08:10 AM ET
