Hey Miami...what gives??
Did anybody else see the (lack of) crowds at the Marlin's stadium this week? It's opening week for them at home, and I'd be surprised if the stadium was even 1/4 full.
It's only the sophomore year for this new stadium, and there seems to be less in attendance than there were in the old stadium. Granted, the Marlin's didn't exactly have a stellar season last yr, and they aren't doing too hot in 2013, and they did lose a lot of their star power over the offseason...but still. I've seen more people at a high school game than at the Marlin's stadium for opening week.
I don't think it has anything to do with the Marlins' poor record, as the old stadium seemed empty during opening week...the year after they won the friggin' World Series. Maybe it's just a Miami thing. LeBron James & the Miami Heat's excellent record this yr isn't exactly selling out basketball games. Perhaps Miami isn't really into the pro sports scene.![Er... what? o_O o_O](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
