The secondary source that I have found is an article on Kentucky.com a site where columnists such as Mark Story post articles on sports or restaurants or even local events. This article in particular talked about the Kentucky Wildcats football stadium, Commonwealth Stadium, and the numbers and trends of fans who attend the games. In the article Mark Story actually interviews the UK Athletics Director Mitch Barnhart and asks him a few questions on why there seem to be less fans than there had been in the past and what he planned to do to fix that. "That big-screen television at home and the comfort and ability to sit at home and watch has had a big effect," Barnhart said. This quote Is a perfect example of why the stadium isn't filling up as much, the less people at the stadium, the less diversity of cultures in this one community. The article also gives very strong factual evidence to support its argument such as a crowd of 54,846 for UKs home opener against Miami and that number is the 7th least attended season opener is UKs 41 season history.
