I think that’s what’s lost on this new tournament, 500k is amazing for the winning players, but what’s different for the fans? 500k is a drop in the bucket for the superstars, but it’s amazing for the players lower on the depth chart, but will that really draw more fans to watch the game?
idk if you’ve been watching but clearly fans have shown up for these games, moreso than regular season games. Every playin game I’ve watched so far basically has playoff atmosphere from the fans, I can only imagine what the games in Vegas will be like.
tl;dr fans basically get to watch playoff atmosphere games in November/December instead of having to wait till May/June.
