Steff Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 QUOTE(The Critic @ Feb 16, 2006 -> 02:32 PM) It's the price we pay for success. I liked having the run of the park, but I think we all knew that was over when the Sox did what they did in October. This is what people get for all those "get your ass out to the park" threads I saw the past couple years..... I know, I know... It will be interesting to see how they react if (when) we hit a slump. Wonder how many will jump off the ship at the first 3 game skid... :rolly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chisoxrd5 Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 Yeah this is quite a far cry from the last decade or so. It's very weird being the the favorite son all of a sudden. I would estimate that we will be at about 2.6-2.7 million in attendance. Which is pretty insane. The only thing that worries me is I have no idea exactly how many of the tickets that are sold are currently in the hands of the fans. I would imagine scalpers have jumped in and hold a large amount of those 2 million tickets. Kinda sad but I guess that is a nature of the beast. And Jim make sure you post the week that u decide to take a trip out here..I'm sure some of the season ticket holders on here would be more than willing to help you find some tickets.

watchtower41 Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 QUOTE(rudylaw @ Feb 16, 2006 -> 03:13 PM) Being at the Cell when it is sold out and they are winning. I remember being at a few sold out games last year when the Sox stunk up the place and it was not fun at all. Game 1 of the ALCS rings a bell, we were so confident that we would whip the sleepy Angels, that the team and the fans fell asleep on themselves that night.

AddisonStSox Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 Double-edged sword. On one hand, you get spoiled as a true baseball fan having that whole, entire park to yourself. On the other hand, the White Sox fanbase really stepped up and this is a sign of very good things to come. Very cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NUKE_CLEVELAND Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Feb 16, 2006 -> 02:11 PM) We know the Yankees, Astros, and Cardinals are going to sell out quick to. It is very possible that we will surpass the entire 2005 attendence before a single pitch is thrown... at spring training. Wow. Thats just amazing!! I guess we can finally lay the attendance b****ing threads to rest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quickman Posted February 17, 2006 Share Posted February 17, 2006 QUOTE(Steff @ Feb 16, 2006 -> 04:55 PM) 36K per game... Again.. it would be something.. but it aint happening this year. 2.7 is 33K per game.. that's a long stretch also. Steff i think they did 2.3 million this year and that was with a slow start.(attendance wise) I think 2.7 is very doable especially if they get off to a quick start, say sweep the tribe! Anyway, the park was nice and empty, now the lines begin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSH2005 Posted February 17, 2006 Share Posted February 17, 2006 I like it when I have the park all to myself. I don't like to be cramped. But it's also cool when the whole stadium is rocking after a big walkoff homerun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoodAsGould Posted February 17, 2006 Share Posted February 17, 2006 I like having a little room but 25-30 thousand is alright by me.. when you get up to the 35-37 range it becomes a bit crowded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
