Yeah, it seems total home attendance per season would make more sense.

Especially as a percentage of available seats per season.

My home teams (bulls and Hawks play at the same stadium, United center) The bulls have 41 home games per season (963,500 seats) while the black hawks have 41 (963,500) compare that to the bears at soldier field with six home games (only 504,000 seats)

The Blackhawks don't play every game in Chicago. No different than the NBA.

I think just # of games as a relative guage. Next would be avg ticket price. Can't expect people to have the same amount of time and money for each sport, which are not mutually exclusive.

+1. Using the average per team, Baseball averages 3.4M attendence per team across 150+ games. NFL averages 1M across 17 games.

Would be interested to see if average NFL ticket prize is 3.5x MLB.
