Local Market Factors that come into play are: How large of a population base does the team draw from? If you are lucky and have a large population base to draw from, your market for selling the tickets will be greatly increased compared to having to sell your tickets in a market that is smaller. Teams in larger population bases will of course have the greater opportunity to "out draw" a smaller market team. How many other sports teams play in your market? Many times, having multiple teams in the same sport will increase the number of potential buyers. Even if you have a team in another sport, that too will increase the number of potential buyers, since most sports fans will enjoy going to a game that isn't the regular sport that they attend/follow. How many concert venues compete with your teams fans entertainment budget? If you live in a large metropolitan area such as New York, Boston, Los Angeles, San Francisco, or any other similar sized area, you will have competition from the concerts that are playing the same night as your sports team.
