Your reduced 35,000 seat stadium still has around 10 thousand empty seats every game. For a team in the pennant race. Spin it any way you want....that is pathetic. I guess that's the only thing you can still hold onto. Wow, the Cubs get a lot of people to fill their park and boo their horrible team. Meanwhile, I get to sit behind home plate and watch the A's win another division title. The crowds in Oakland have a ton of energy, they are all into the game, and the food is much better than Wrigley. It's a lot of fun. Plus, the fans are much less bitter.
