OP
It's a different perspective. In the US, MLS teams represent millions of people and great expanses of area. So fans travel hours to see their team rather than taking the train a few stops or walking a few minutes. For that reason you don't see the same sense of community.
Sure teams like Dallas and Salt Lake hardly fill a stadium, but Toronto, Seattle, Columbus, and occasionally DC (need a new stadium, RFK is too big) provide a really good atmosphere. It's not the same as Europe, but who says it has to be?
That's the biggest problem with soccer in America, we insist on trying to be like everyone else that we don't even have a consistent style.
I don't know enough to know where it's biggest. I enjoy watching games and I love the sheer athleticism of the sport, but as I'm Belgian, it's difficult for me to understand the finer culture behind it all.
Well, then don't use it as an analogy, smart ass.

what he said
i remember going to Pittodrie when i was a nipper and it was always a bit tasty in there,i never fully understood what it was all about but there was an atmosphere you could taste....when i moved back to Edinburgh and started going to Tynecastle in the mid80's it was nuts,my uncle used to take me and stand up the back of the terracing where the "singing section" (the nutcases who were always drunk and considered themselves the "hardcore") would stand it is there i learned to swear and sing offensive songs to whoever we were playing while avoiding the piss that ran down from the back of the stand from the guys too drunk to bother walking along to the pisser.
the thing is though the atmosphere,the energy the place generated was tremendous and something that died when all-seater stadia killed off the holligan element that could not hide in the crowd anymore
