MLS Attendance - Teams Seen By the Smallest Percentage of Fans

Here's the year-end update to which teams had been seen by the smallest percentage of fans in a given season. Mea culpa -- I somehow managed to exclude data from 2008 in the post from earlier this year.

You might notice that this list has a lot of teams from the last couple of years. Thinking about this a bit more, that makes sense, as more teams in the league means each team should receive a smaller slice of the overall attendance pie. I still think this is an interesting stat, but it's probably less useful for historical comparisons than I originally thought.

Here's the list of teams who had the smallest percentage of tickets sold to see them.
