shakes Posted April 29, 2005 Share Posted April 29, 2005 The attendance is going to be better than expected according to the Sun-Times. It looks like ticket sales are going well so far this year.  http://www.suntimes.com/output/sox/cst-spt-stix29.html  Mods, this may need it's own thread so we can quiet some of these attendance threads. That is quite a redundant statement.  And yes, I am going to the game tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted April 29, 2005 Share Posted April 29, 2005 Attendance is going to explode if we keep playing well. Luckily we have 6 games against Detroit and KC, so that should help the record, as long as these injuries heal up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soxbadger Posted April 29, 2005 Share Posted April 29, 2005 It is supposed to rain so not sure how many people are getting excited about a game that very well may be canceled. Â SB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IlliniKrush Posted April 29, 2005 Share Posted April 29, 2005 (edited) Ok i'm sick of these f***ing attendance threads, i really am. Â -They are always started by people who never go, b****ing at some of the greatest white sox fans around, many of whom have season tickets anyway or go to games as often as possible. Â -Only a couple thousand people read this message board, if that. You aren't even reaching your target audience, which are the complete bandwagon, "what do to tonight" people, who may take their buddies or family or what not. Â -"I don't live in Chicago". Well then please, shut up already. Just because you aren't close enough to go doesn't mean you can b**** about others that are close enough to go. I don't know where you get this logic. Â -I'm in freakin Champaign and i'm coming up tonight for the 2nd time this year, want to b**** at me for not getting to the games enough? Sorry i've got class and other commitments all the way in CHAMPAIGN. This is probly the case for a lot of people. Stop labeling some of the best fans on here with this attendance bulls***.

Y2HH Posted April 29, 2005 Share Posted April 29, 2005 Ok, I'm going to have to write you a prescription for Sodium Chilafiniaxazone. In pill form we call these "Chill Pills". Take two everytime you see and enter an "Attendance" thread on any and all White Sox message boards.   QUOTE(IlliniKrush @ Apr 29, 2005 -> 12:24 PM) Ok i'm sick of these f***ing attendance threads, i really am. -They are always started by people who never go, b****ing at some of the greatest white sox fans around, many of whom have season tickets anyway or go to games as often as possible.  -Only a couple thousand people read this message board, if that.
