Too funny. The UFC tries to hold a MMA competition on a Sunday in Salt Lake City but has such poor ticket sales that they end up having to move to a California venue.

international QUOTE
UFC originally scheduled its cable-televised fight in Salt Lake City because the Utah market had previously shown high TV ratings for the rowdy, anything-goes sport.

But when ticket sales couldn't get off the ground for the light heavyweight main event, headlined by Jon Jones vs. Vladimir Matyushenko, a "disappointed" Dana White, president of the 17-year-old mixed martial arts company, discovered "strong" ratings didn't equate to strong Sabbath crowds. Ref.

No one was good enough to advise them on the best days to have an event like this given the crowd? Perhaps they thought Mormons wouldn't want to bother with it.

This story makes me laugh, it shows two things, Mormons can be hypocrites; and the UFC needs better Market Research. I would not doubt that the ratings in Salt Lake for this pay-per-view fight was as good as the reason that the UFC brought a in-person live match, on a Sunday, to Salt Lake in the first place.

If anyone thinks it doesn't happen then they're naive if they think the priesthood leadership doesn't take in big games via pay-per-view on Sundays. I even heard one bishop race through meetings so he could be in time for a game.
