The 2023 XFL season has been exciting, intense and fun to watch since Dwayne Johnson took charge. The league has returned after a three-year sabbatical at the right time, which has been a joy for football enthusiasts.

The Orlando Guardians and Houston Roughnecks' most recent matchup on Saturday (March 11) saw the home team having about 2000 less spectators from their previous attendance of 12,000 in Week 3.

The second week's shortage of Seattle Dragons supporters was due to the weather. Last weekend, more than 4,000 more Dragons fans attended than the week 2 number.

As per Mike Mitchell, there was a significant increase in spectators during the Seattle SeaDragons versus San Antonio Brahmas matchup. There were 15,103 spectators present as opposed to 10,386 in week 2.

After beginning the season with three consecutive away wins, the BattleHawks got a favorable reception from their home crowd on Sunday (Mar. 12). The Battlehawks won to improve to 3-1 on the season, possibly their most spectacular win of the year, in front of an XFL record 38,000 fans.

The D.C. Defenders dominated the Vegas Vipers 32-18 in the Week 4 finale on Sunday night. According to Mike Mitchell, 11,520 people attended the game.

The XFL has already attracted more than 220,000 spectators this year, including 75,000 spectators across league games in Week 4.


St Louis fans set XFL attendance record to show support for new team

In Week 4, the XFL's comeback narrative appears to be in full flow. To compensate for the NFL off-season, action-starved fans flocked to the XFL in pursuit of thrilling football.

The XFL is offering some regions the chance to support their home football teams. St. Louis is one of these regions. The BattleHawks received a warm welcome from the city that no one will forget soon.

With 38,310 spectators in the stadium, the Battlehawks' inaugural game at home against the Arlington Renegades on Sunday at The Dome — where the NFL's Los Angeles Rams hosted their home games before relocating to Los Angeles — broke an XFL attendance record. That number is a season high. Since the 1990s, this is the game with the highest spring pro football league attendance.

A. J. McCarron completed 27 passes for 214 yards, two scores and one interception for the Battlehawks. He gave the crowd a great showing and played an effective game.
