I doubt this is true. While the Miami area is dominated by unassimilated Hispanics, not many will be found at the football games.

Very, very untrue. The Orange Bowl sat in the heart of Little Havana for 70 years! They play salsa music at all the games, Cuban accents and Cuban people are a big part of the crowd.

University of Miami has tens of thousands of Cuban alumni, professors, staff, doctors at U Medicine and so forth. They are faithful season ticket holders. There were hundreds of celebratory Cuban flags and chanting in the crowd at Saturday’s football game against Duke.

Unassimilated? The original exiles have mainly passed. Nearly everyone is speaking or understanding English, finally! They are the dominant wealth -business owners and professionals of Miami.
