Explain how game attractiveness, economic factors, and competitive factors relate to game attendance. Game attractiveness influences game attendance because spectators will make the decision about the game’s value and importance based on which teams or athletes are competing in said game. The more attractive the game is perceived to be, the greater the chance that we will attend. Economic factors can play a role in game attendance as well because the sports organization can try and control the high costs of ticket prices so that more fans can attend the events. Competition also plays a part in game attendance because we can decide to observe through live sporting events or through other mediums. Sometimes, it’s easier and more cost effective to just watch on TV. Other times, we want to be there for the real event. 4. Describe the demographic profile of spectators and explain the changing role of women as spectators. Spectators are most likely to be male, young, educated, and earn higher incomes than the average person.

They are also motivated by the social value of sports and if their friends and family were already watching the event. Women today are attending more sporting events than ever before in history. 5.
