Blackouts in Albany?


FAASPN- League sources tell FAASPN that Albany's season ticket base has dropped from 10 fans to 3 fans in 2009. Mostly known for their walk-up fan base during the last few years of mediocrity the Patroons had hoped to see their season ticket base grow to 100+ this season. Unfortunately the raising of the "We LOST in the Championship Game" banner during the pre-season has had the unsurprising effect of causing the fan base to revolt. Richard Cranium who made up 20% of the season ticket base last year after purchasing two tickets on the 50 yard line had this to say about the ceremony, "I have had a challenging life and I know what its like to have people make fun of you. That is why I latched onto this team, but the chest pounding and preening that went on this off-season because we managed to LOSE in the Championship is more than I can take"

For the 3rd consecutive year the Patroons will broadcast CLIENTS games during their own home games in an effort to bring in all the NYC fans to watch the biggest screen in town. The Clients vs. Jackers contest last year produced the first home sellout in a game that Albany wasn't actually playing the Clients in the last 5 years.
