My calculation is that 22,000 a game for ticket plan folks, presale, walk ups etc. = 1.8M I do not think we will have a crowd below 22K.
Sell-outs for all May 19 - End of season Friday, Saturday and Sunday 18,000 per game 30 games = .540M
35K for weekday games against Angels (3), Stl (3) 13,000 per game over 22K for 6 games = .078M
Sell-outs Opening Day, 4th of July, Day before 4th of July, 3 Yankee games = 18K for these 6 games = .108 M
Poof our attendance will be 2,526,422 Average crowd 31,190
This is what I think is a realistic view.
I think we'll see weekday totals between 30-35K and sellouts during the good matchups during the summer months. You're still predicting typical weekday games at 22,000 which I'd be shocked to see. So I think its realistic to see the attendance a bit higher. I don't think 2.8 is far-fetched.
