Fan Loyalty
What drives fan loyalty?
• Location (where you were born/live)
• Tradition (root for the same team as your parents, big brother/sister)
• Winning
Note – the sport or teams loyalty plays a key factor regarding the price fans are willing to pay for a ticket and how many games they will attend.

There are two major factors in the decision process:
1. Demographics
2. Infrastructure

Infrastructure
•Available venue (stadium, arena, field)
•Seating/Viewing capacity
•Parking capacity
•Possible incentives offered by the local government (tax breaks)
![Page 10: LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062408/56813be7550346895da51648/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
How can your city’s demographics and/or infrastructure change?
• Loss of jobs (factories or business close or move out of town)
• Losing becomes a trend….fans no longer interested.
• Venue needs too many updates.
• Local government changes…thus, policy changes.
