Good enough to for 12th in the entire league. My guess is that there were probably a few Sold Out games last season. No reason to believe that it won't happen this year as well. Just an educated guess, but it appears that ticket sales are NOT an issue.

This is absolutely true.

By the way, the recorded attendance at NFL games are butts in the seats. Every game was sold out, but not all were fully attended. There are no general admission tickets available through the team box office, nor will there be for years to come. Every game is technically sold out for the foreseeable future given the long waiting list for season tickets. Any tickets purchased during the season are solely through third party vendors.

I expect the Saints to have the same number of both unsold tickets and playoff wins as Taylor Swift during the next 12 months. If this makes Taylor Swift a good football team it makes Dennis Allen a good head coach and Mickey Loomis’s 2018-2023 GM strategy good (Loomis has not done anything especially terrible this offseason YET though he could have done better too).

As to the forseeable future, it depends on your definition of forseeable. It costs nothing to join the season ticket wait list and you lose nothing if your name comes up and you decline. A large number of both season ticket holders and wait list members are probably out of town scalpers. Scalpers are only interested in making money and wont want to pay for tickets if they will take a loss on a doormat team nobody excited to watch. If fan sentiment goes negative enough it could easily be forseeable to me that 25,000 scalpers and 10,000 fans could drop their tickets, all 300,000 or whatever scalpers on the wait list could say no thanks, and even if 200,000 fans are on the wait list, it could be hard to get 35,000 of them to buy low and pay and thousands for season tickets to see Trevor Penning repeatedly audition for a lead role in Romeo and Juliet with his convincing on field rendition of the penultimate scenes.

Why not go update your goofy assed IHateLoomis.org or whatever you call it. You and your flunkies aren't going to kill this site as much as you all try.
