    Is anyone else embarrassed by the fan turnout for the Spurs? I moved my family to Chicago a little over 7 years ago because of work so I catch all of the games in league pass. They aren’t going to compete for a le this year and probably not for a few years to come but the team plays their asses off and their fun to watch. The legacy that has been built by this franchise and the fact that the Spurs are all San Antonio has should still translate to sellouts and excitement around the team. If San Antonio is waiting for the Spurs to become a serious le contender before showing up to the arena when that day comes they might not be in San Antonio any more.

    Yeah people are going to go jam pack an arena during a massive COVID wave to watch a lottery team.

    This, plus most of the empty seats you see in the lower bowl are corporate-owned meaning a lot of the time they go unused.

    Popovich alienated half of the fan base with his liberal politics. What did you think would happen? Im actually suprised the attendance isnt even lower. I hope the Spurs move to another city...good riddance.

    We have caught them a couple of times in Milwaukee since we’ve been here. The plan is to move back at some point. Hopefully their still there. I don’t buy the COVID argument. Other arenas are full. Only thing I can figure is some towns support their teams all the time. Some only support a winner.

    The Spur fan base won't support a losing team anymore. They've been spoiled by past success. If too many losing seasons continue the Spurs will move out of town.

    Because there’s more important than going to the AT&T when the omicron is surging or is that a hoax?

    Even when The Big 3 and then Kawhi were here, always looked empty except obviously in the playoffs.

    I was curious about this as well. We are doing very poorly for attendance bottom 3 or 4 in the league. http://www.espn.com/nba/attendance
    My gut is saying its Covid related because in pre covid times we were averaging 98% - 100%. Covid combined with losing has hurt the attendance, I don't really see any evidence that Pop's politics are keeping people from the games. He has been shooting his mouth for years now and it didn't affect the attendance any.

    This. I canceled my season tickets when Popovich said Trump supporters are morons. As soon as he is gone I will be back. I was spending upwards of $20,000 a year between tickets, parking, refreshments. I can spend that money with companies that appreciate my biz instead of mocking me. For better or worse (mainly worse) Pop is now the face of the franchise. Before he wasn’t.

    I hope Pop leaves and the next coach is even more vocal. if they can find a trans Syrian refugee who frames all his answers through CRT while randomly citing Quran phrases to make their points, I'd be down for the lols if nothing else. Imagine letting some old dude chase you away from the things you love when you can just press the mute button instead. Just quivering, weak-sphinctered, subs, the lot of them.

    exactly

    most of the seats have been sold and you can get them on sites like seat geek or stub hub but the folks that resale still try to charge like we are a contender still.

    They need to move the stadium tbh. It’s by literally nothing. There's a Valero and uhhhhh. Worst place for a stadium ever. It would take me an hour to get to the stadium due to traffic and s not worth it for that ty team. Imma support them here in Houston but man it’s sad to see. Tickets aren’t even expensive tbh

    Im not even sure if it’s an Omnicron thing. We have so many people who do t wear masks or aren’t vaccinated and legit don’t give a . I think the team just isn’t watchable any more. We should move back to the Alamodome. Those days were dope. Hemisphere was too small otherwise I’d say that is the perfect place.

    You’re a ty fan. Rather people like you just stay away altogether. If your ability to support our team resides that strongly on other peoples political opinions then you’re the problem not the guy who has the balls and courage to speak his mind.

    Get the outta here pussy.

    These people have the internal for ude of a 6 year old watching someone eat ice cream in front of them. They swear they’re against cancel culture and then immediately contradict themselves the moment someone exercises their freedom to an opinion that isn’t lock stock and inline with their absurd obsession of living their life predicated on an absolutist political opinion.

    That guys a ing loser.
