USF Sport & Entertainment lecture series set for Oct. 9

New York Mets COO Jeff Wilpon will be among the guest speakers at USF's fifth annual Sport and Entertainment Lecture Series, set for Oct. 9 at the Sun Dome.

The event begins at 7:30 p.m., with doors opening an hour earlier. Admission is free, but registration (at this link) is requested. Parking for those with no S-Lot pass is $10.

The theme of this year's series, sponsored by Fox Sports Florida and the Tampa Bay Lightning, is "What Tomorrow Could Look Like." Joining Wilpon will be Tim Leiweke, CEO of massive sports-entertainment alliance Oak View Group; and Brandan Donohue, managing director of the NBA 2K League.

The lecture series is a staple of the Vinik Sport and Entertainment Management Program in USF's Muma College of Business.

Rowdies Home Attendance Thread - Game 15 vs. Bethlehem Steel FC [9/30] (self.TampaBayRowdies)

6,611 vs. Bethlehem Steel on Saturday. Despite threats of rain throughout the day, it was another successful Go Gold night. Anecdotally there were more people on the field for the pregame walk-up tunnel than I have ever seen before. (I thought it was close to 500 people on the field pregame).

Wednesday brings the home regular season finale. Last year we drew 7,641 for that game - we certainly won't top it for a Wednesday game, but here are two numbers to watch. We need 5,010 in order to be able to top last season's average and make it 6 years in a row of consecutive growth (even if it's just barely over breakeven). We would need 6,946 in order to average over 6,000 for the season.

Ticket sales look decent at this point, but I'm going to guess we'll land more likely in the 5k range for this one.

Published on Dec 19, 2010

Highlights of a North American Soccer League match on June 6, 1976 that saw the Tampa Bay Rowdies defeat their rivals, the New York Cosmos, 5-1 behind a hat trick by Derek Smethurst. One thing you'll notice is the empty end zones, because they were still being constructed in June of 1976 in preparation for the debut of the NFL's Tampa Bay Buccaneers later that summer.
