Al Lopez Ghost (old) Posted August 19, 2003 Share Posted August 19, 2003 I think we've drawn a little more than 1.3 million so far. Last year we drew a little more than 1.6 mil. We have 21 home games left, several of which are prime draws. Will we break 2 million? I think we'll miss it by a hair. My guess would be 1.96 million. Any other guesses? We will sellout the post season, however. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elcaballo45 Posted August 19, 2003 Share Posted August 19, 2003 It helps that we have half price days to boost that up.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted August 19, 2003 Share Posted August 19, 2003 It helps that we have half price days to boost that up.... We had the same half price days last year. There is just more excitement about this team during the stretch run, so people are going to the ballpark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Allen Posted August 19, 2003 Share Posted August 19, 2003 Another thing that will help, is even if the Sox are out of it at the end their last 3 home games are against the Yankees, with 2 being half price nights. I'd bet at least 100,000 for those 3 games. I think they will fall short of 2 million, however, they have a chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd bet at least 100,000 for those 3 games. I think they will fall short of 2 million, however, they have a chance. I'd say you could count on 120,000 under those circumstances. Probably 3 sell outs.

This was in the Sun Times this morning: If the Sox maintain the average they had in their previous 22 games, they will draw 2,000,935 fans for the season, making it the first time since 1993 they have gone over the 2 million mark.

So that means that we'll sign a big free agent in the off season, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YASNY Posted August 20, 2003 Share Posted August 20, 2003 I wouldn't hold my breath, but I'd love to see us go after that Japanese shortstop named Matsui. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Kenny Williams' track record of obtaining guys with common names, there's no way I want him trying to sign a Japanese player! He'll be expecting to get a stud homerun hitter and we'll end up with a 65 year old karate instructor that trims bonsai plants in the clubhouse as a hobby.

Nokona Posted August 20, 2003 Share Posted August 20, 2003 Either ESPN or MLB said Kaz Matsui has 30/30 capabilities. He's also the better Matsui. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
