Even the Hillbillies of NASCAR are in their hatred for dear
leader Trump. Fear and obey Trump or you too will be punished
for your insolence.
Even Limbaugh knows better than to cross Trump. Trump has all
the power while you are weak and stupid.

"Thursday Night Football" gave football fans something of a
surprise as the San Francisco 49ers hosted the Los Angeles
Rams
at Levi's Stadium in a barn-burner of a football game, ending
with an enthralling fourth quarter by the Niners before
falling
just short of completing the comeback.
The Rams' 41-39 victory was a shootout — and some of the most
exciting "Thursday Night Football" fans had seen in recent
memory, featuring a successful onside-kick attempt, late
turnovers, and a backdoor cover that sent gamblers home either
elated or furious.
There was even an uptick in TV viewership:

But the game also served as a reminder of one of the NFL's
recent woes: poor attendance.
Shots of the stadium, like the one above, made clear that
attendance was dismal for the primetime game. Despite claims
that attendance was over 70,000, anyone with eyes could see
that
the stadium was largely empty, with even some of the best
seats
in the lower bowl left untaken.
As SFGate noted, tickets were available on secondary markets
for
just $14 — about the price of a beer and hot dog inside the
stadium. And still, few people found the time to support the
Niners in person.
People on the internet took notice, inspiring headlines
including "The 49ers and Rams Played a Great Game in Front of
an
Empty Stadium" at The Big Lead and "It Appears Not Many People
are Physically at the Rams-49ers Thursday Night Game" from
Sports Illustrated.
Additionally, Twitter was quick point out the empty seats,
sharing images far and wide of the empty stadium:
