ASL Attendance

This is a work in progress: attendance figures (as best as can be found) for the second American Soccer League, which began play in 1933 after the collapse of the first ASL and lasted through 1983. The figures for 1982 come from the 1983 American Soccer League Media Guide, and are incomplete (obviously). The 1978 figures come from Andy Crossley’s excellent Fun While It Lasted, and there was a math error in those figures. There is a lot of history in this league, but its attendance figures are probably going to be very difficult to find.
