USL Club FC Cincinnati Sets League Home Opener Attendance Record

USL club FC Cincinnati is “the owner of yet another” attendance record, this time, “it's the largest-ever mark for attendance at a home opener.” The club on Saturday “attracted a crowd of 23,144” to Nippert Stadium for its match against St. Louis FC. That broke the previous mark of 20,231 set by Sacramento Republic FC in ’14. The crowd was “so large that team and stadium officials moved decorative tarps from the Nippert grandstands at halftime to accommodate ticket holders” (CINCINNATI ENQUIRER, 4/16).
