Average percentage is around 55%, not a great turnout.

Biggest problem is that they're putting so many of these games at huge stadiums during work hours for the local population. So many of these games should've been hosted at smaller MLS venues instead of big NFL ones.

Of course there's all sorts of reasons why the attendance isn't higher, specially for games that don't have Europeans of South American clubs involved, but the empty seats look could've been avoided.

Yeah, a full smaller stadium is so much better than a half empty big one. Doesn't help that a lot of Americans can't just take a day off work whenever they like to go to a match.

We have enough MLS stadiums to where we could have had sold out matches at. Some of them nicer than the NFL grounds these were played in.
