Not so. Hartford was quite well attended, and I watched the 3 hour show ESPN did on tape.I
I'm also betting that these 2 events will end up being just single day events ... they can hardly get folks to come to SA as it is.
I just wish more people loved figure skating like we do.
Your last sentence is the crux of the matter. We lost those folks with the scandal of SLC, although many contests are not doing well lately. We are now in an era of reality TV with the fans at home participating by calling in their vote.
Figure Skating tried that but the fans just voted for their favorites not for what they saw on TV. Casual fans were just disillusioned. Figure Skating should never have tried that. It made the situation worse.
