The NFL’s embrace of BLM protests and anti-police sentiments has led to a decline in stadium attendance. The intrusion of politics into football has been criticized by various political affiliations, resulting in empty seats at games. Despite reports of tickets being sold, images show low attendance, possibly due to a combination of poor team performance, weather, and new entry policies.

This decline in attendance is not limited to one team, as many others have also experienced reduced or minimal growth in average attendance, indicating a broader issue. The controversy surrounding the politicization of the league, as highlighted by former President Trump, continues to impact the NFL’s popularity and viewership.
“Wouldn’t you love to see one of these NFL owners, when somebody disrespects our flag, to say, ‘Get that son of *** off the field right now. Out! He’s fired. He’s fired!’” Trump said in 2017. “You know, some owner is going to do that. He’s going to say, ‘That guy that disrespects our flag, he’s fired.’”
“And that owner, they don’t know it [but] they’ll be the most popular person in this country.”
“The NFL ratings are down massively. Now the No. 1 reason happens to be they like watching what’s happening … with yours truly. They like what’s happening. Because you know today if you hit too hard: 15 yards! Throw him out of the game!”
ultraliberals are not happy unless they are obsessing about something.
