Personally, I enjoyed my experience at the inaugural Roughnecks UFL game. Other than the fact that we lost, everything went smoothly from when gates opened until post-game. There were just under 10k in the stands, and despite it being Easter, I still thought that number was a huge underperformance from the fans of a huge city like Houston who’s had the Roughnecks for a few seasons now. The fans at the game created a great environment when the Roughnecks made big plays, but majority of fans seemed unmotivated to get loud when we were on defense unless they were told by the PA announcer to make noise, which was only on third downs. That disappointed me, because after all, this is pro ball and it’s all about being loud and intimidating for the visiting team, and I personally enjoy games that have great atmospheres. Sure hope attendance numbers rise and fans get more engaged, because I want the UFL to succeed, and it can’t happen without those two ingredients. Tickets are cheap for a pro league, so that shouldn’t be an issue. Despite those downsides, I made sure I had fun and enjoyed my experience. I did my part in being loud and engaged, and I spent quite a bit of money. I’ll definitely be back for another game this season.
