Ehh, I think that's a stretch. According to ESPN's data, Sacramento's arena was filled to capacity on average every year from 2003-2008, when it finally started falling off. It's only been awful the past few years due to constant relocation threats, cost-cutting, and open hostility to the fans and city from the Maloofs combined with a bad and unlikeable team on the court.
