You're probably right.

how come there is 1000 fans at a jr. high girls game, 500 at a freshman game, and only 1 or 2 at a varsity game...i know the parents usually have to bring the girls to the lower level games, but after they get older it seems like they are just sent there with whoever and all their support is gone!! it's ridiculous that parents and fans will go watch jr. high over there local high school teams even when there daughters are playing...it's like refereeing at a funeral sometimes at a girls varsity game

It's exactly the opposite around here. If I do an afternoon girls game, there are about 30 people there. Varsity girls games (especially Friday night rivalries) can often pack the gym.
