What is that, about 5-6k short of capacity? I'd be thrilled with numbers like that from now on.

I would be too, if it wasn't Friday night in August when we're 2.5 games in first and playing a team with Albert Pujols and Mike trout on it. I went last night and I am going tomorrow, do your part people.

 

Edit: That was more a comment to the general public as I know everyone here is a diehard and goes whenever possible.

Dont forget that tix were as low as $26, as this was elvis night, a premium game.

Price is still a major factor for fans to go to more games.

 

So you should stop trying to shame people togo to games.

Seat chart on whitesox.com already showing that the lower deck is almost completely unavailable and the upper is at least half sold....

 

Sold out lower deck 23K, Sold out Club Level/Suites 5K, Sold Out UD 12K...Capacity 40K.

 

Sold out LD with half sold suites/club and UD would be about 31.5K.

I feel confident when I say the average/fairweather baseball fan has no idea who the hell Mike Trout is. Baseball is by far the worst (hockey doesn't count) at marketing its individual superstars. I wouldn't even recognize Mike Trout in regular clothes just walkin' down the street. And I've got a hard-on for him. For the Sox, they have to win. Period. Yeah, if the Yankees, Red Sox or Cubs come to town, they'll draw. But it's more the franchises themselves than people paying top dollar to see Robinson Cano, another guy I probably wouldn't recognize outside of uniform.
