What do you think is the potential of professional lacrosse as a popular sport in the US and Canada? The National Lacrosse League is currently a distant 3rd in terms of average attendance for indoor sports leagues in the US and Canada, following the NBA and NHL, and the Premier Lacrosse League, which is outdoor, averages around 10-15K, though it is a traveling team rather than playing in home arenas/cities. The sport does seem to be growing though, and unlike soccer in the US and Canada, it would not be competing with more competitive and more popular lacrosse leagues in other countries. Do you think it could ever near the popularity of the NHL and NBA? Which type of lacrosse (box or field) do you think will become more popular, or can both become big sports? How popular do you think it can get at its peak, or do you believe it is already there?
