Despite only one playoff appearance in over ten seasons, Columbus averages 14,484 per game. Imagine that number if the CBJ were winning???

The bullshit factor is here. Even if you're not a Sonics fan, this is a cool documentary on what can happen when slime can come to your town and unfairly take a team--- yes, the whole movie is streamed for free:

Bobcats are 3-26, and averaging 17,082 a night. :shock:

The CBJ was having some issues with the costs/price of Nationwide Arena and were all set to move (it was under reported and never specifically stated where but the obvious place was Kansas City) and the city and county intervened. The arena is now being financed with casino revenue. Essentially the Blue Jackets are paid to play in Nationwide Arena in Columbus. They aren't going anywhere.
