That was a long time ago. Maybe Mainland and Seabreeze can get back to those attendance figures with Travis Roland and Pat Brown, two very good high school football coaches, leading the Buccaneers and Sandcrabs.
A couple more factors in favor of Orlando City Soccer Stadium are an abundance of reasonably priced hotel rooms and they already hold a college bowl game there each year. Have you ever had to get a hotel room in Gainesville or Tally on a Gator or Nole football game weekend? Prices are ridiculously high and require a multiple days reservation. The only reason not to have the games in Orlando is if the stadium owners aren't interested.
