The KHSAA has 6 classes for one big and a few minor reasons.

The biggest reason is more money. 6 games means there's a significant chance to make a lot of money. Attendance didn't really change since the 4 class system. 2006 was the last year for 4 classes and the average crowd was around 7,000. This year's average is around 7,000.

The other reasons for 6 classes are to give more teams a chance to win state and give all the different areas of the state a chance to have more reps at the finals. NKY, Louisville, the Mountains, and Central Kentucky each had 2 teams, and WKY had 4 teams.

As far as making games competitive, the best solution is 3 classes, but that doesn't make any sense financially
