Fan Base: Team and Budweiser Gardens

fan base: This team could be another London for us, Magley said as the Titans debuted with a 117-77 romp over the visiting Chautauqua Hurricane from New York state, according to The Waterloo Record. The London Lightning are the NBLC's cornerstone franchise, a team which regularly draws 8,000 fans to the Budweiser Gardens. There's no reason why Kitchener-Waterloo can't be one of the great markets we have, the 10-team upstart league's boss said courtside at the Kitchener Aud while surveying the Titans' franchise opener on Saturday afternoon. London's fan base is the largest basketball crowd in North America outside the NBA, the commissioner said. One of the secrets of success is great ownership, Magley said. Like London, the Titans boast a basketball-mad market in the game's southern Ontario hotbed and steadfast owners. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
