NASCAR HOF attendance down third year in row

The NASCAR HOF's attendance in its third year was 176,838, a 10% "decrease compared with the year before." It is "unknown how it fared financially," but the facility "lost money in its first two years of operation." The Hall in its first year attracted 272,000 fans, while second-year attendance was 197,410. The decrease "isn’t a surprise, as museums and attractions often see attendance declines after opening."
