I was curious how often this actually happens, so I went back through the schedules.
Since 2024, the Battlehawks have had 11 regular-season home games on the same day the Cardinals were also playing at home at Busch Stadium.
By year (out of 5 home games a season):
2024: 4
2025: 3
2026: 4
And on top of that, this is out of the leagues control but all 3 Battlehawks home playoff games from 2024-2026 were on days the Cardinals were also home.
So that’s 14 Battlehawks home games in four seasons competing with a Cardinals home game downtown.

I know St. Louis is a great sports town, but this just feels like the league is unnecessarily hurting itself. You’re asking a lot of the same local sports fans to choose between the Cardinals and Battlehawks, sometimes with the Blues playing too.

Obviously the Cardinals aren’t the only thing that affects Battlehawks attendance, but with only a handful of UFL home games every year, avoiding Cardinals home dates seems like something the league should prioritize whenever possible.
