1) It's like the gayest sport there is!
2) It's still relatively new to the modern world. Yes I know it's been around forever but it's just never caught on because it's often not flashy enough for the majority of people. Judo only gets by because of its throws.
3) It's too hard to just pick up. Anyone can pick up a basketball and play a short pickup game; anyone can grab a football and throw it around; but not everyone can roll with everyone for 4-5 minutes.
4) Not everyone is willing to plunk down the $100+ monthly for years just to get one promotion. People want results NOW, not a year and a half (and $1500) from now.
5) Not everyone is willing to say 'I am going to suck at this for a few month before I get remotely okay with it.'
