July 18, 200818 yr I shall be there on saturday :thumbup with a ramirez jersey like the other 30,000 ppl lol
July 18, 200818 yr Unfortunately, I've already gone to the only Marlins game that I can go to (Marlins vs. Oakland, 6-3 Winning Pitcher: Nolasco). I would definately have bought one if I was still living in Florida, unfortuantely my job has taken me a loooong way away from Miami. Edit: What's worse, I won't even be able to watch the entire game
July 18, 200818 yr I'm broke, but I will try to get some tickets for tomorrow. I really do not see how this is true, but a friend of mine told me he called for Sat. tickets and that the game is expected to have over 40,000. Must be the fireworks that will go off while the sun is still up. If that's true, then that's awesome. The national audience will think we draw that much on a regular basis :mis2 unless announcers let them know that this is out of place and odd. Yea right. Because it is a very well kept secret that we have been in last place or near last place in attendance for YEARS. But our TV ratings are so good.
July 18, 200818 yr i doubt we will draw anything close to 30 on friday or 40 on saturday hopefully i am wrong I have a friend that works at the stadium and he said the advance word is "very good but not great" crowds expected. Something in the low 30's Friday night and mid 20's on Saturday, unless it rains. That sounds closer to the truth. I never make Friday night games, even sold all mine w/parking pass. Saturday day game I will have to wait and see how things work out. Probably show up late and toss some Philly fans out of my seats. The wife won't be there but I'm bringing both tickets so I don't have to sit next to some Philly fan with an attitude. But it is going to be HOT. According to the forecast, not much of a chance of rain all week end. Definetly be there Sunday in our upgraded seats. Thank the baseball gods for that 5 For Free plan. Bought that and then gave 5 of our regular Sunday tickets to the Community Foundation.
July 18, 200818 yr Not helping is the story on the front page of today's Miami Herald. don't go overboard with 40k, 30k would be great.
July 18, 200818 yr I'm broke, but I will try to get some tickets for tomorrow. then rob someone. yes, its that important. (hopefully everyone who reads this has a sense of humor and realizes i am only kidding about the robbery part)
July 18, 200818 yr where is the national broadcast? I watch all my games on MLB.TV but was trying to find the TV schedule and I can't find them
July 18, 200818 yr Not helping is the story on the front page of today's Miami Herald. don't go overboard with 40k, 30k would be great. That story by Barry Jackson was a weak and superficial article. It has no depth and does not provide the unknowing with any balance of the situation. It's like Barry wrote the article as a Braman employee.

It has no depth and does not provide the unknowing with any balance of the situation. It's like Barry wrote the article as a Braman employee. Ugh, that story was in the Bradenton Herald today too. The headline was "Gone fishing for Marlins...fans." I'm so sick of this. There's nothing I can do about it because I haven't lived in South Florida since 1990. I'd have season tickets if I still lived there...bad weather and all. It kills me that I can't help attendance. I want to see 30,000 on FOX for the Saturday game. The last Marlins home game I was able to attend was around this time last summer with my dad. It was a Super Saturday and the crowd was almost reminiscent of Marlins attendance of the early to mid 90s...but of course, it was because of Barry Bonds. It's just infuriating because they're such a fun team to watch, especially at home there's always a chance to see a walk-off. Please, if you live in South Florida, find a way to get to the games this weekend...this is a crucial time to prove Braman and all the haters wrong.
July 18, 200818 yr I think anyone who expects 30,000 on friday and 40,000 on saturday is crazy. Obviously I hope that is the case, I jsut dont expect it. A mid 20's crowd and a mid 30's crowd on saturday would be fine and actually realistic.
July 18, 200818 yr ya think I can just show up to the stadium and get tickets? :lol Keep in mind, this is still Dolphin Stadium we're talking about. I'm sure you'll be able to find a seat somewhere. lol yeah thats true... theres always an empty seat in the house wont be supprise if fishtank is soldout that why i brought my ticket on monday last time i waited to get it their all fishtank soldout
July 18, 200818 yr where is the national broadcast? I watch all my games on MLB.TV but was trying to find the TV schedule and I can't find them it fox game of week ch7 it wont able to see on MLB.TV because fox own that time slot 3:55 to 7pm

There's always room. Any way they open the upperdeck for a regular season game? I mean the oufield upper deck. Doubt we even need it, but just asking lol yeah thats true... theres always an empty seat in the house wont be supprise if fishtank is soldout that why i brought my ticket on monday last time i waited to get it their all fishtank soldout

Day/Afternoon games always hurt the attendance.
July 18, 200818 yr where is the national broadcast? I watch all my games on MLB.TV but was trying to find the TV schedule and I can't find them Only 11 % of the country is seeing our game, so it may be on FOX but it is the # 3 of the 3 games they are showing. By the way, McCarver will be doing the color not Tommy so expect a lot of cutting nasty remarks directed towards Marlins, and especially poor Dan Uggla. :confused

As much as I hate the both of them, they didn't bury him.
July 18, 200818 yr 30,000 thats asking for a quite an amount. maybe it will happen no promises though.
