If they do get it in, it's going to be a miserable, lousy day for baseball. The wind chill is nasty, it's damp. Ick. Who's going today, Santana? I'd watch his pitch count and not let him hurt himself in this weather. Let Hoch pitch five or six innings. Who cares if he blows up?
There's a group from my work still going out to tailgate and watch the game. They're nuts.

Royals are in 1st place.

Royals are 29th out of 30 teams in attendance.

I'm sure cold and rainy weather has been part of it, but St Louis is 3rd and the Cubs are 10th. They've had shitty weather too.

But, how much money do you think Mr. Glass has lost just due to crappy weather during every home stand?

Weather, everyone blowing their wad for the All Star game last year, and 28 years of mostly shit baseball all contribute to lack of attendance.

It's going to take a lot before many fans believe in the team and the ownership again, bad weather or not. If the team is still contending by the end of May, I think ticket sales will start to pick up.

I was gonna go on this Friday and the last one, but the weather changed my plans.

Baseball town?

This is what sucks about Dynamic pricing. They are drawing like shit so you figure they would drop the price to 2 dollar tickets or something. Dynamic pricing just seems like it's expensive some games, and really expensive other games.

KCUnited 05-02-2013 10:43 AM
Also, a lot of tickets available on the secondary market aren't being offered for much less than box office prices. I think Royals fans have been accustomed to being able to pick up discounted tix in years past, especially during the week, that aren't willing to pull the trigger quite yet.

They've been doing quite well in tv viewership compared to years past, so the interest is there.

If tickets were truly "dynamic pricing" Daddy Warbucks Glass should give every fan a fiver and a free beer on entering the stadium today. Lousy day for baseball.

I'd rather have Cain in front of Billy.

If I lived there I'd be going to a lot of games. Unfortunately we have a trip to CA planned for 2 weeks so I don't think I'll make it this summer. Might be able to catch them in Arlington.

Torrential rain may stay west of Truman Complex for early innings, but all bets are off after 3pm. Crappy day for baseball. We'll have to use our running game.

Never been to Kauffman & I've lived in Tampa 3x as long as I ever lived in KC. :p
