Dates are this plan's theme nights, family days first, or open family days when it has too few. Theme nights lift crowds here about 6.4% on average. The ranking is untested as a pick: on 354 theme nights in 2025–26, how an area leaned toward a subject didn't reliably predict which nights drew more (correlation +0.08, range -0.06 to 0.22). Read it as a list of ideas the town likes.

Sponsor board

Your hand of sponsors

Brands are cards. Rarity is how much more Indianapolis likes a brand than a typical club city does; the stats are its Qloo ranks. The scouting list is the local businesses an assistant can name. Together they found more of clubs' real 2025 sponsors than the assistant alone. No alcohol, gambling or tobacco.
