Didn’t Florida just go to the finals? Where’d the fans go?

    They don’t really have fans. They have only 200k followers in Facebook whilst the Miami Heat 14 million.

    80% of the “fans” crawled back into the woodwork from whence they came, now that the bandwagon’s busted a wheel.

    I, myself, proclaim with unwavering pride and confidence to be a fan from the very beginning. win or lose. a TRUE fan. and yes ik damn well these 25+ seasons have been more on the L side. but whatever. this past season was fun.

    I got permanently banned from the Florida Panthers sub by a Joffrey of a mod named u/RoadDoggFL. avoid interaction y’all. toxic af. he bans ppl who talk back to him. sure hope the mods here are at least more decent. but my respek n love to all hockey fans, mod and user alike ✌🏼🏒🥅

    but anyways….amongst those 3,457 ppl in attendance are true fans like ME!! 🐀🧀 hoping for at least another playoff berth.

    It’s beginning of the period place was packed tonight. Traffic is bad in south Florida

    Take a screenshot during the middle of the period, dingus. This a lot of hockey arenas at the start of a period after intermission ……. Why did you make this lame post? There was a ton of people in the crowd tonight ……

    What a loser.

    Sincerely,

    An Isles fan

    It’s fucking Florida. They don’t deserve hockey.

    It’s the beginning of a period and a Monday game.

  7. Band-wagon fans who don’t understand the game very well. It’s very normal in America, just want to smash beers and cram hotdogs down their throats.

    The game was sold out with 19k people. The reason why that section in particular is effectively (always) empty is because it is a premium section that comes with free food in a lounge behind those seats. The lounge has TV’s showing the game, so the rich folks who sit there often just watch from the lounge and eat as much food as they can to get their money’s worth.

    This is why you should do research before you run to social media to talk shit about something that you don’t know. I wonder if you’d post an a apology post as well, or are you only posting these wannabe gotcha moments.

    I hate screenshots like these.

    It could be the beginning of 2nd and people are still working their way back to their seats from getting food.

  11. Flashy-Knowledge3209

    I was there and it was slammed packed on a Monday night. Hopefully you got the attention you crave.

  12. They all went back to a time when ****wood paneling**** was all the rage.

    Sigh. This old saw needs to be thrown on the junk heap. I can’t quote you the exact stats, but our season tickets are very well allocated and, if you ever were to go to a game, you would see that the fanbase is alive and well. This is “tell me you don’t know jack without telling me you don’t know jack.” End of discussion.

  14. They went to the concession or bathroom in between periods. Also it’s Florida. This was a few years ago, but I remember looking for tickets to a Leafs game and they were going for a grand. I Live in land locked Saskatchewan so flights would double that. At the time you could get season tickets to the Panthers for $325 USD

  15. Judge_Rhinohold

    In Quebec City every one of those seats would be full.

  16. greasygangsta

    If they seat similar to Winnipeg Jets, they do not open the doors to the arena soon enough and most people miss puck drop as they’re trying to get food, drinks, go to the bathroom etc.

  17. Grand-Imagination925

    People jumped on band wagon typical Florida fans

  18. thingsandstufffs666

    For as good as the Dolphins have been at home, I ask the same question when I watch their games.

  19. wilfordbrimley778

    As if anyone in florida can afford those seats

  20. Most games are pretty packed. But a monday night game usually doesn’t draw too many. Especially against the oilers. Any team from the northeast is going to draw the biggest crowds. Not to mention the stadium was built just outside of the suburbs in a swamp.

  21. Its pretty bad when the snowbirds won’t even show up to see McJesus and company …

  22. hididillyhothere

    Why watch a game when you already know the outcome?

  23. I haven’t checked this season, but it would be empty in Toronto every start of the period too.. Doesn’t mean anything. Probably in some VIP lounges or something.

  24. West_Fuel_7990

    Oil aren’t very good this year but McDavid and Dreiseidl are fun to watch.
    Do it soon, though, they may clean house in Edmonton after this seas9n.

  25. gettin-baked

    Was at the game. Was packed. Screenshot out of context. Don’t post stupid shit

  26. Frumbleabumb

    Isn’t this most arenas on puckdrop on a weekday

  27. Loose_Concentrate332

    Final, not finals. There is only one.

    Sorry to be the grammar police, but that’s one of my biggest pet peeves, along with offsideS.
