... that the Seattle SeaDogs were one of several professional soccer teams founded in the Seattle area in the mid-1990s? Source: Seattle Post-Intelligencer (February 7, 1995)
ALT2: ... that the Seattle SeaDogs averaged only 26 percent of their home arena's capacity in 1996? Source: Seattle Post-Intelligencer (October 29, 1996)
Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
Cited: - Offline/paywalled citation accepted in good faith
Interesting:
QPQ: Done.
Overall: Article is long enough and expansion was recent enough. All hooks are interesting and cited (AGF on ALT0 and ALT2 for offline source) and I will give the tick to ALT0 and ALT1. ALT2 is my favorite but it seems to disagree with the article by just a minor detail since the article seems to state that the 26% figure was just for the 1996 season; the hook gives the impression that the 26% figure represents the franchise's whole existence. Happy to give ALT2 a tick if the hook is amended slightly. No concern from Earwig and a QPQ has been provided. PCN02WPS (talk | contribs) 06:54, 2 January 2023 (UTC)
