I recently spoke to LRMHC Commissioner Brian Feiler about this.
"We at the LRMHC understand that the recent economic troubles hit home for a lot of people, and that they may not have the extra cash on hand in order to take the family out for a nice night at the game. But people have to understand that this is more than just a game, this league is a business that is going through it's own problems too."
"We're doing everything we can in order to keep revenues in the black for all of our franchises. Take for example, the salary cap that was implemented after the Post-Black Friday Tournament. Or at the Living Room expansion plans that had to be scrapped last weekend. We had blueprints drawn up for two additional couches to be added to the living room, with an option for a tier love seat, but we couldn't justify the expenditure nor guarantee that those seats would be filled come game time."
VP of Foreign Affairs Nikesh "Brown Squad" Patel also commented on the bleak situation.
"We're still a young league, and now is when we have to establish and nurture our fanbase. I think what we need to do in this time of need is come up with better promotions in order to get the fans off the couch and into the Living Room. Some free giveaways, cheaper ticket packages, maybe even a Dunk Tank with Ginger, anything to ensure that we can get an audience."
Sean "Ginger" Doherty could not be reached for comment in regards to VP Patel's statements.
