Of course, these times are different, but still, don't overestimate the "hype" impact in Vancouver.
People here tend to hop on whatever bandwagon seems the most popular.

It's kind of difficult to maintain attendance when there are no game. The Whitecaps died in 1984 because the NASL died. As long as the MLS continues to build slowly and continues to stay in existence, the Whitecaps will be one of the leading franchises in the league--as they were in the old NASL.
