Yep, that's the issue. We're their bread and butter. Hamilton has been pretty good with their new stadium being pretty packed most nights even though it's lower capacity (about 25000) in recent years.
That last game against Calgary was announced 22700 but they messed something up, gave away thousands of tickets or just fudged their numbers as the entire upper tier on one side was empty (looked like about 5000+ seats), the other upper tier was half full and the lower sections were about half full.
There was not more 12000 people in that stadium and that may be generous.
