The Watering Hole


Recommended Posts

Interesting to see Grand Rapids on this list:

http://www.bizjournals.com/specials/2006/0...e_sport_article

its REALLLY interesting to see the numbers in that table:

Market's capacity as a % to support a team in the league

(100 = fully capable)


					NFL	MLB   NBA	NHL	MLS

Grand Rapids, MI	100	59	100	100	100

According to that GR is 100% capable of supporting probably one of the three NFL, NHL, or NBA.

in terms of MLB capability GR is third overall behind Orlando and Las Vegas! Its higher then Portland and Oklahoma City even. (technically Sarasota, FL is higher, but Sarasota is 52,000 people)
