I'll be there Tuesday again vs. the Royals with a friend. Hope to see a nice crowd again.
 
I did my part today...bought 2 tickets (section 307 Row A isle seats) for the rest of the season!
 
I've been to 11 so far and have tix for tonight. Don't think the attendance will get much better based on how it was earlier in the year until now.

Yesterday the weather wasn't the best, but it looked pretty empty at the game. I guessed the attendance to be around 14k and heard it was just a couple short of 20k.

Still 20k on a Friday night is a joke.

It was pretty dead last night and a lot of the people left really early. I just kept looking around and marveling at how huge portions of the stadium were totally empty. I could have bought a ticket in one section and had the whole thing to myself.

The whole town seemed kind of dead last night to be honest. I stopped by the Casino after the game just to check it out and I walked right in, no line. My buddy said there was a big line out the front, but we went in through the tower city entrance. No wait at all.
 
I'm embarrassed by Cleveland. I was now officially born in Montana, deciding on a town over the next few days. Probably going to end up being Whitefish or Kalispell.

The alternative is Boston, which I will end up being from if I'm not impressed by the two towns in MT.

what was the temp last night? It was freezing here in NW Ohio.
 
I'm going to the game tomorrow. Section 113.

At first pitch it wasn't bad...Actually almost perfect, just cloudy. Didn't rain at all either.

It did get really windy once it got dark though, and then it was freezing lol.


Going into the game there was only like a 15-25 percent chance of rain I think

It was cold and windy, but it wasn't unbearable or anything. I was fine with a light jacket. It did get progressively colder, but again, it wasn't terrible.
 
For all the talk of the Tribe needing stars - not sure what more Kipnis needs to do to reach that point. He's having a monster year.
