July 4, 200521 yr Author It might be a decent sized crowd. Probably would be even larger if we were playing a team like the Cubs today instead of this weekend. I hope there is no rain delay this weekend so we can get crowds of 45,000+ during the weekend like we were supposed to get last year. 839416[/snapback] 45,000+ because it's the cubs?

They have a HUGE following. If you remember the 2003 NLCS, a large part of the crowd was full of Cubs fans.
July 5, 200521 yr 24,207 840157[/snapback] Not bad considering it's a Monday and a lot of the people were probably celebrating 4th of July. Also, we were playing a team without a huge following in Milwaukee.
July 5, 200521 yr There had to be more than 24k, even though the upperdeck was closed, the entire lower bowl was packed and that was by far the loudest "24k" i've ever heard in my years of being a season ticket holder. I assume a lot of people (Like the 2,000+ military people on hand) got in free and thus weren't accounted for in the paid attendance or something, because there was definintely more than 24k.
