But I pretty much can't name any other amateur tourney that has 10000 spectators

Our local junior hockey team gets an average attendance around 8K.

Football events of scrub teams in germany get tons. Hell my club luton (england) had 8-10k average attendance in the. 5th footballing league

Except football (soccer) is already a well known and commonly played sport, even small teams can garner attention if they are decent. You can't compare a sport that has billions of fans to one that has a few million.

All sports start small and its the amateur and causal scenes that keep them alive

Wrong, its the money.

And where does this money come from? The masses of amateur and casuals who enjoy the sport

No. Normally people aren't really interested into sports they don't play, or didn't play in the past. Amateur scene allows people to "experience" the competition and meet a lot of people. I don't know this generation, but mine (i am from the early eightys), almost everybody i knew was on a football club. Guess which is the most popular sport on Spain by far. Do you think it is just for watching it ? Or because generations after generations play football ?

The money, is a byproduct of how well the amateur scene has managed to capt people interested into the sport.

Thats what I said?

Yeah, i wanted to quote the other guy. Went full derp :p

Np :D
To all the haters: you deserve to witness many, many more Serral victories, worthy of the godlike player he is.

No, it comes from people who buy products marketed at tournaments. You think Redbull put up 25k and a whole stage and cast because they just liked SC2? No.

Thats kinda what I mean. Without those amateur and casual playerbases there is no incentive for sponsors. Christ

A sport becomes popular because people with money make it popular. How do you think DOTA/LOL got so big so fast? Because people put up big money for the best players, not because kids playing DOTA/LOL wanted to expend their market.
