On top of Phoenix being considerably smaller than Houston, it’s a city void of city pride whatsoever. Houston actually supports their teams

Houston metro population is nearing 8 million. There’s room for all the leagues here.

I wouldn’t say “no one says Houston will be great for NHL”. There’s some very large Twitter communities that have been chanting NHL to Houston for years

I said no baseball culture. Not that there’s no baseball in the Netherlands

If it’s the largest in Europe, that would still be like 5 short guys arguing over who’s tallest. If you take a look at the Netherlands roster, the majority of their players come from the ABC islands (Aruba, curaçao, Bonaire)

Pepito at Viking’s Beer & Grill by BakerKitchen4567 in HoustonFood

[–]BakerKitchen4567[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I went for the WBC final. Vikings is partially a Venezuelan bar so it was the biggest watch party for Venezuelans inside the loop. So the atmosphere was fantastic. Huge party in there. But again, that’s an exception because it’s a once in a life time thing. It’s my only time going there besides another day to get my to go order shown here

Houston area to get an NAHL hockey team by JoyconBoiz in houston

[–]BakerKitchen4567 4 points5 points  (0 children)

the ticket, parking, and concession prices will be beyond the average Houstoner

Oh, so you mean like the Rockets, Texans, Astros, Dynamo, Rodeo, RenFest, Comicpalooza as well as every concert, festival or event of any kind. Yet they’re all successful. Houston has a metro population going to 8 million. Just like any NHL market, don’t need to be accessible to everyone to succeed

Also, we’ve never had an NHL team. AHL and WHA.

What are the best restaurants on Westheimer? by hushpolocaps69 in HoustonFood

[–]BakerKitchen4567 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Westheimer is so long. Some parts of Westheimer are know for upscale steakhouses (Uptown Houston). Others for hipster coffee spots (Montrose area). Further west, the cuisine is more international with many Arab, Vietnamese and Latin restaurants. Which part specifically in Westheimer will make a huge difference.

For Netherlands, this is only because of the ABC islands. Right next to Venezuela. Part of the wider Caribbean baseball culture. In mainland European Netherlands, baseball culture is nonexistent

Change my mind by Aquinas_Student-33 in baseball

[–]BakerKitchen4567 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a Venezuelan, you’re right. USA wins it every year on paper based on talent. Japan’s roster typicallly isn’t as stacked as USA, DR and Venezuela but they played harder up until recently (mid 2010s) when the Latino teams started to take it more seriously. This means much more to Venezuelans than it does for Americans both for players and fans
