School of Kinesiology Sport Management lecturer, Clinton Warren, PhD, was recently featured in the article “2021’s Best & Worst Cities for Football Fans” on the personal finance website WalletHub. In the article, Warren gives insight on the qualities that make a city an ideal environment for football fans. 

When asked about the financial impacts of the pandemic on the football industry, Warren says “Overall, the NFL is the most insulated from the pandemic’s economic effect as a result of the significant broadcast revenue the league generates. The league was able to complete its season without cancelling a game, and since the NFL makes the majority of its revenue through these and licensing relationships, the financial toll of the pandemic is lessened when compared to other professional sport leagues.”
