Reason for Tulsa temperance? From an unscientific poll:

Tulsans are all for giving the WNBA a chance in Tulsa, but they're not too sure about actually going to games.

Better than 70 percent of those surveyed Aug. 29 to Sept. 1 by SoonerPoll.com said they approved of plans to bring professional women's basketball to the city. Only 5 percent, though, said they would frequently attend games, and nearly half said they didn't expect to ever see the team play.

Still, that would give the proposed team a fairly large potential market.
