Their average attendance is about 20,000. Thats pretty good but pales when you compare with the numbers for the Texans (NFL). The Texans fyi are the WORST team in the NFL, they literally finished last. 20k is pretty good but then Houston has a lot of immigrants like myself. The face of soccer is changing though we are talking generational growth here. Not much is going to change in the next 4 years. I go to Houston Dynamo matches on an irregular basis.

I don't think you can judge a whole nations reaction to the WC, just by attending one MLS game. For example, all the 'euro-snobs' need to be taken into account. They won't attend MLS games, but they'll watch the World Cup. I disagree. I don’t think you can judge a whole nations reaction to the WC, just by attending one MLS game.
