Football has a broad base of older fans from 60s, 70s 80s and of course the most recent success but no drive to maintain their interest.

Baseball's main base came along in the late 90s and early 2000s with major boost in 2014, and Robichaux had the autonomy to make your game day experience one you wanted to experience again and again. Robichaux knew how to "Win the Event."

Other factors may be at play.

Yes. Additionally, and less of a factor than the ones you mention Turbine, is college baseball has grown in popularity nationally among younger crowds.

My “other Parrish” was Texas. LOL

Closing the form, will clean up the free text data at some point today and share results in a new thread.

Polls closed after a day and half?

(That also coincided with gameday and gameday travel)

Responses slowed to a crawl. I can re-open, but the trends have remained the same from where there was a pool of 20 responses to now close to 200.

Re-opened.

I would recommend visiting the IMGUR link below because the embedded images for the parish/county question won't show well embedded within the post window.

Woof! 43% are 55 and older, I knew majority of our fan base was older but this is telling.

Also I must be the only person in Rapides parish
