i think they will....the club knows they have to do some PR work so they will probably have a lengthy celebration after the game with the fans. maybe give aways and such. well at least they should.

I'll bet you a 1987 Quarter! lol

Paid attendance, or actual attendance?

Either way, I guess I owe a 1987 quarter

Perfect example, there was a crash on I275 right as the game was ending, the only other way out of there is waaaay out of the way. Now you have 30,000+ people trying to get out of there and it is going to take hours just to get out of the parking lot. LOCATION SUCKS!!!!

Small crowd = lose
Medium crowd = win
Large crowd = lose

Maybe the should have just given away 10,000 free tickets. The 20,000 free tickets went in 90 minutes.

I don't really mind what Longoria and Price said but when they do pack the stadium it's time for the players to hold up their end of the bargain.

Can't believe they're building a new stadium for the Fish. Maybe if it were in Oklahoma or something but it's obvious that not enough people care about going to baseball games in Florida. That's like building a Catholic church in a town full of atheists.
