Obviously, LAFC coming in had an impact, but I think this is alarming. Red Bulls set a record for the number of season tickets sold in 2016 with 11k and supposedly had a 10% increase last year so that puts them around 12k. Obviously, the Red Bulls had won the Supporter's Shield, whereas the Galaxy won the wooden spoon.

Alot of people on reddit said that they didn't renew because they could pick up better seats on the secondary market for half the price.

The majority of the money the clubs are receiving are from television rights and sponsorships. If STH #s are falling, and the reddit reasons are correct, they really should look into lowering ticket prices. Attendance is really important for the look on TV and atmosphere in the stadium. They have to seriously consider even taking a loss on ticket prices to ensure fans come to matches and fill the seats.

The Galaxy need to watch out as I think LAFC are going to be a force in MLS.
