Spin it all you want, that ain't too great. Better than their usual numbers though....averaged around 14,000 last season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chitownsportsfan Posted April 27, 2023 Share Posted April 27, 2023 (edited) Their stadium is in an awful location. I'm trying to think of a Chicago equivalent. Maybe if the Sox played near Midway airport or some s%*#. The stadium itself we all know about, arguably the worst in pro sports.

Rounding_Third Posted April 27, 2023 Share Posted April 27, 2023 4th in AL Central...? While that is ugly enough, why not call them what they truly are...3rd worst in AL & baseball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just wish we were discussing attendance issues with a good team that was our own. And that was fun, like we were sparring on Twitter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really enjoyed it and we went in the shoulder season in October and the weather was perfect and crowds not a problem. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
