Potentially, because some people might not want to spend time getting to the stadium in that weather.
But for 110 degree weather, we are basically talking about July and August and people will only be bothered for day games. That means we are talking about 6-8 home day games during those two months. Let’s say there are 5 such super hot games and attendance is down 20% for those, that’s a total of 30k less visitors a season at a stadium that otherwise averages 30k fans. Out of a total of 2.4mil fans that visit that stadium in a season.
Phoenix, the one city that’s hotter than Vegas, averaged almost 28k fans last season.
