Falcons Forced To Cancel Super Bowl Rally After Not Enough Fans Show Up In Houston

20170127_112755

The ideal matchup for the NFL would have been either a Patriots/Cowboys or a Patriots/Packers Super Bowl, but they will have to settle for the Patriots matchup  with the Falcons.

Adding to reports that the atmosphere down in Houston has been lack-luster in terms of excitement for the game relative to recent years, apparently pep rallies are even being cancelled due to not enough fans showing up.

The Falcons were reportedly set to host a pre-game rally today in Houston outside NRG Stadium at 3PM, only to cancel due to the lack of fans that actually came.

Meanwhile, at the Patriots rally, the crowd appeared to be packed with excited New Englanders.
