September 11, 200322 yr If people don't show up for the weekend series against the Braves, I don't think they ever will. There really aren't any excuses left. 25,000-30,000 on Friday and Saturday nights...anything less would be alarming. Sunday's game is one of those sunburn specials and it's up against a Dolphins game, so all bets are off on that one. I'd be there Friday and Saturday if I weren't stuck in Durham.
September 11, 200322 yr 30K tickets have already been sold for friday and 40k for saturday. I think the fans have come out..... the numbers speak for it.
September 11, 200322 yr 40,000? is that for real? i bet most of them will be doing the chop but still.
September 11, 200322 yr 30K tickets have already been sold for friday and 40k for saturday. I think the fans have come out..... the numbers speak for it. Are you serious? I'm planning to go both Friday and Saturday.
September 11, 200322 yr I'll be in Orlando unfortunately, have to wait until the Philly series I guess. Great to hear though. About F&%#@ing time.
September 11, 200322 yr Good percentage of bandwagon fans, I'm sure... but don't the Braves' series usually draw more anyway?
September 11, 200322 yr 30K tickets have already been sold for friday and 40k for saturday. I think the fans have come out..... the numbers speak for it. *wipes drool from chin* its going to sound like a rock concert at the PRO.... one word, 3 syllables AWESOMENESS
September 11, 200322 yr Good news that there actually will be someone there this weekend. Hopefully they can break the "attendance jinx" and not continue to suck at home when there is a big crowd! But then again.... Too bad it'll go back down to 10K on the weekday games. This town deserves a baseball team like I deserve a Pulitzer for this post.
September 11, 200322 yr 1truefan, are you sure? When are the numbers from? The last time you said 30k, there were 20k. Are these tickets sold or reserved (will call)?
September 11, 200322 yr i hope itz not mostly atlanta fans on saturday :killthemall , but damn 40k! i shall be there with a sign making lots of noise. the whole family is going. LETS GO MARLINS!
September 11, 200322 yr i hope itz not mostly atlanta fans on saturday :killthemall , but damn 40k! i shall be there with a sign making lots of noise. the whole family is going. LETS GO MARLINS! it won't be mostly braves fans, maybe a 1/4, which considering before the Marlins Miami was braves territory is not bad at all.
September 11, 200322 yr before the Marlins Miami was braves territory is not bad at all. The whole South was Braves' territory. My parents are going to Naples this weekend so I can't go Friday. Saturday will be cool, cuz I'll go then, and Sunday. Saturday is gonna be the attendance of the year. Saturday night Playoff race Atlanta Dontrelle Bobble head Good weather Maybe 40,000
September 11, 200322 yr I will be going. I cant wait to get the Bobble head and see Dontrelle pitch against the Bravos!
September 11, 200322 yr my little sister is going on Saturday with friends and the mother of this one girl. i have invited that little girl to games when i had a spare ticket and she always said she would never go to a game. now a friend invites her and she jumps on it, she doesnt even like baseball or know the first thing about the game. they're going to try to hook me up with a ticket but i still cant believe she's going because her friends are going. i think she's even going to paint her face like friends, im not sure. she didnt even know the Marlin colors are

September 11, 200322 yr i have to teach my sister the concept that a hitter hits the ball, not "throws" it like she says. little girls :confused
September 11, 200322 yr The sudden rise in attendance is because of Atlanta and D-Train it'll be back to 10k crowds after the series is over...
September 11, 200322 yr even when we play philly DT? There might also be 20k crowds against the mets... theres always seems to me alot there
September 11, 200322 yr even when we play philly DT? There might also be 20k crowds against the mets... theres always seems to me alot there Well when the Mets are playing at PPS it seems like New York cause almost half of the crowd is wearing a Mets' cap.
September 11, 200322 yr im thinking(more like hoping) attendance is real good up until the playoffs...
September 11, 200322 yr im thinking(more like hoping) attendance is real good up until the playoffs... That'll be tough on Sunday with the Dolphins playing the Jets at 1:00 on TV.
September 11, 200322 yr The Dolphins have lost favor this week, alot of people are bitter. they will go to the Marlins game, but listen to WQAM on their radios.
