I saw the Dolphins were offering a cheaper standing room only ticket this year to try and pull some of that audience in.

Have you looked at Disney stock lately? DIS ticker.
ESPN is in free fall. They talk of cord cutters, but my daughter and son are, if I can borrow a cheesy line from a cheesy Disney sports movie that was shamelessly pimping their new hockey team, they are "NEVER WAS". As in, they never had a cord to cut. They are over the top consumers of content, all day, every day. No cords to cut, cause they never subscribed to ESPN in the first place.
Anecdotal to be sure, but there are sure to be more like them.
