Hello OL Guy:

Here's a few excerpts from the First Edition of the "Cheetah Update", this should give you some info on what's in store for 2003.

Attendance UP in 2002! Cheetah Fans came out in droves this summer. Attendance for this season broke 66,000 fans beating last years 62,774. An extra special thanks to you, the Cheetah Faithful, who made each and every game an outstanding event!!

Season ticket prices Lowered!
The 2003 Season ticket plan reflects a reduced per seat ticket price from 2002. Also the additional 3 game homestand as the league was expanded to a 90 game season.

I hate to burst your bubble, but once again the Cheetahs are fudging the attendance figures for this past season. Attendance was actually down again for the fourth straight year. 70,831 was reported to the league office in 2001. So the figure of 66,000 they are qouting for 2002 is 4,000 fans less than the previous year. That is a fact.

In 2001 there were a lot of seats that were Given away, by the GM that year, and I believe they are going with "Paid attendance", which I believe the paid attendance was higher in 2002 than it was in 2001.

Don't forget the thousands of complimentary ticket vouchers that were circulated all over the south suburbs for 2002.

I believe you are wrong. 70,831 WAS the paid attendance in 2001. Plenty of seats were given away in 2002 also.
