Mannnn…. U made some really solid points there. Real good. The one about owners dismantling world series winning mechanisms (2x)… that one is a curious case… one of those what ifs? u pretty much debunked everything i wrote previously w that possibility 🫠

Thank u for having me rmc 🤙👊👍 this is a heavy topic for me (marlins’ crappy attendance). Ok, so how much time do u have? 😉 there r lots of teams that play below five hundred ball, on a regular basis, year after year, n get tons more fans at their games than we do. Lots of teams. U’d think miami, being a gateway to d americas would b a hotbed for baseball maniacal support - it isn’t. Far from it. Why? Bc our marlins suck? Blasphemy! (Though this year i’ve noticed that we’re like the third worst team to lace up their spikes) no, it’s not bc of who we have playing the field. In my opinion, n that’s all we’re doing here, chatting n expressing ourselves, it’s bc of a lack of shared history. I honestly feel that we can get to twenty thousand for a wednesday nite game (albeit thirty years from now). The rockies have hit impressive, beautiful attendance numbers throughout their history (we came in together, mind u), but that’s denver, which is also a major city, but different than miami. I don’t know man… maybe miami is like a turnstile for ppl… a transcient sorta place where new ppl come in but don’t stay… where lotsa ppl live but don’t support baseball

Hello sir fish. Nice to b here 👊 The notion of having some premier players may draw some folks to the stadium - so i have to agree w that tactic. But even then, that will not b enuff to even remotely get the plain jane 20k that other mlb teams get on a tuesday nite home game… we draw (if planets line up properly) twenty g’s w d yankees, red sox, dodgers… maybe mets fri/sat evening games. Miami is just a different kinda city… i say that in a weird n funny manner (sorta proud, being a miamian for forty two years), but also in a very sad n shameful one - baseball wise.

Good afternoon everyone! I have been a marlins fan since their inception. I was even making the forty five minute drive to old joe robbie on a regular basis to watch the florida marlins (that stadium’s attendance appeared even more dismal because of its sixty four thousand capacity). When they moved to lil havana i went ahead n purchased season tix… i did this for five consecutive years…. Then i woke up n said “enuff”… i will not continue to spend lots of money going to games n just seeing a sea of empty blue seats… it became depressing. The lack of fan support just blows my mind. Even though we got a brand spankin new stadium in the center of miami! It’s sad. Sometimes i look at box scores just to see n confirm how pathetic we are… seven thousand is about average for a weekday game. On a good day maybe twelve k - perhaps fourteen thou (probably twenty to up to forty percent there to watch our visiting rivals). I commend what u r doing w ur research n will continue to check in look at ur statistical journey. Thank u
