Ramp Posted October 17, 2003 Share Posted October 17, 2003 all i can say, is that the attendance will improve yet again next year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig Posted October 17, 2003 Share Posted October 17, 2003 all i can say, is that the attendance will improve yet again next year If you guys keep this team together, and can't draw 2 million fans next year, I won't understand what everybody in south florida is doing.

Marlins Phenom Posted October 17, 2003 Share Posted October 17, 2003 Funny, but i hope is not the truth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FishFan24 Posted October 17, 2003 Share Posted October 17, 2003 Guarenteed that there will be more than 6 or 7,000 there a night. Average? I'm looking closer to averaging 20,000 people a night there next year. Is it a stretch? Yeah probably, but considering there won't be any major fire sales and if management can bring in good talent to replace those that are lost, this will be a very good baseball team again next year!

geemoney Posted October 18, 2003 Share Posted October 18, 2003 all i can say, is that the attendance will improve yet again next year Really going out on a limb there, aren't ya? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiamiSpartan Posted October 18, 2003 Share Posted October 18, 2003 I would guess we'll average closer to 30,000 if the main core of the team stays put. Obviously there will be some tinkering...there always is. Look at the Braves. They've managed to win 12 straight division titles, each year with new players thrown into the mix. (Although with only one WS championship to show for it... :lol ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMLinkinPark Posted October 18, 2003 Share Posted October 18, 2003 If we can say let only Lee and Enc Leave and somehow Loria wants to spend 80 mil. The Team will sell 30k+ a game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miami15 Posted October 18, 2003 Share Posted October 18, 2003 If we keep together we'll get between 18,000 and 23,000! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArkansasMarlin Posted October 18, 2003 Share Posted October 18, 2003 If this team is kept together, the fans will indeed come back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CapeFish Posted October 18, 2003 Share Posted October 18, 2003 Marlins drew 1.3 million this year, 2 million for 2004 wouldn't be a stretch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wild Card Posted October 18, 2003 Share Posted October 18, 2003 If we don't draw 20-25K a night next year, there is something wrong with south Florida. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DurableTear Posted October 18, 2003 Share Posted October 18, 2003 I'd say 18-23k a night next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wild Card Posted October 18, 2003 Share Posted October 18, 2003 If next years opening day isn't a capacity crowd (65K), I'm going to scream. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Das Texan Posted October 18, 2003 Share Posted October 18, 2003 after a world series campaign and with the core returning.... you would have to think that anything less than an average of 25K would be a disappointment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CapeFish Posted October 18, 2003 Share Posted October 18, 2003 If next years opening day isn't a capacity crowd (65K), I'm going to scream. The Marlins don't like to open up those seats unless absolutely needed. you could see a 45,000 person crowd, but not the full 67,000.

That's why I say minimum two million, that would be around 24,600 per game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shamrock Posted October 18, 2003 Share Posted October 18, 2003 Dropping Enc, Lee, one of UU/Looper, and Pudge will allow us to sign everyone we need and maybe bring in a free agent (vlad!?) :lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure Jeffrey Loria will have absolutely no problem opening up those seats. More cash. If the fans came and wanted to sit up there, and you don't sell them the tickets because you don't like to, then you're crazy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest marlins02 Posted October 18, 2003 Share Posted October 18, 2003 didnt we avg around 20,000 during the '98 season with that horrible team? i think if we bring back the core of the team we could surely avg. 25,000. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
g8trz2003 Posted October 18, 2003 Share Posted October 18, 2003 21,363 per game in 98. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
