Not unlikely, the turnout for the Club World Cup which is happening in the US right now has been terrible.
You had PSG, the winner of the champions leage (think football super bowl) take on Athetico (one of the probably top 10 teams on earth), in LA, the second biggest city in the US, and they couldn’t even fill up the stadium 😭.
Wait there's a big futbol thing happening in LA? People in LA don't even know.
