And don't forget, its seasonal
Remind me again why?

Lots of people could give s shit about boxing, MMA, or auto racing, yet they still have viewers who do watch, or am I wrong?
Actually, MMA and boxing have a good fan base . MMA specially . That's why there are SEVERAL shows about MMA on ESPN, Fox and even on Spotify .
Do you think YUM brands wouldn't advertise to the masses in 150 countries, to those very people who see their adds in public, that they're the official sponsor of Professional pool, and come to their website for more information? Or do you think they'd just leave their sponsorship dollars to chance a ROI???
Again, missed the point. Does EVERYONE watch MMA and BOXING, or just those who LIKE watching???
Pass
There's almost 8 billion people on this planet, do they ALL watch Boxing and MMA? Or do a percentage of that population watch all forms entertainment?
rebuilding the college interest for pool is not going to happen
getting parents to buy pool tables and teach them how to coach a player for work ethic can be expanded
Soccer has a fan base of a little over 3 billion, the single most watched sport on this planet, are you trying to tell me that of those 3 billion viewers, they DONT WATCH anything else?? Are you trying to say there's NO VIEWERS left over to watch pool, because they're ALREADY watching OTHER forms of entertainment???
If that were the case, where on earth did CORNHOLE find their viewers?
Glen, you have no college degree . You don't know sh8 about marketing .
And you actually really have no idea how big other sports are .
Fatboy got tired of telling you FACTS.
It's pointless arguing because any rebuttal to you just opens more can of worms .
Again, talk is cheap .
The people here don't need convincing .
The people you are going to talk to, need the convincing .
Take your business plan to them.
Do yourself a favor, don't take a song to them .
Take a business plan .
And that is the reason I used the UFC and the Ultimate Fighter in my original post. The UFC was bankrupt, on the verge of closing shop. Forresst Griffin, Stefan Bonner, and the Ultimate Fighter Reality Series on Spike TV changed everything. Due to the CASUAL fans who bought in and got hooked, they now have PPV's that routinely do over 500k PPV buys... and that is at $60 bucks a pop...
Even on the free streams of pool tourneys, I rarely see over 2k viewers. Maybe a couple of years ago when the MC streamed on ESPN 3? I am sure the streamers on here could give an accurate of buys one could expect.
And exactly why did the attraction to play pool in college drop off???
No idea, I will certainly defer on the foreign market
Sales of streaming depends largely on the attraction to watch, how long you're expected to watch, and if you miss a portion can you come back later to watch.
50,000 locations, 150 countries!
I always thought , UFC finally having weight divisions saved it . Dana White and company were smart. The Gracies only used it to promote their dojos . The Gracies could be billionaires by now if they only had a vision . If their vision was to make UFC the next major contact sport , they would be billionaires now . But, their vision was to open up more dojos. That's why they rigged the first few events .
Then it was the Tito-Randy show.
Then Dana White happened .
You
Know what Joey, if I want to appear to look like I've lost some weight, all I need to do is hang out with fatter people! If I want to appear to be smarter, all I have to do is hang out with smarter people too! So don't you or Fatboy worry your selves any, I have that covered. But guess what, with ALL THE SMART PEOPLE out there, I took someone DUMB like me to get together a room full of the smartest people I know of, in each area of expertise to put this business plan together! So, don't f#&king think for one minute I'm just a dumb pool table mechanic!!!! Diamond and Simonis will be at the meeting too, how does that grab you, by the BALLS!!!
