All 12 of our fans at the Trop were thrilled to witness that

[u/lsda → u/MrBoomf]

Lowest attended (non pandemic) LCS game of the 21st century.

Edit: I was there, and it honestly didn't feel that dead from the park. But numbers don't lie and I'm used to 17k games.

[u/MrBoomf → u/lsda]

I legit don’t give a shit, and the haters are just envious

[u/K20BB5 → u/MrBoomf]

envious that you can't fill your own park in the ALCS? 

[u/toxchick → u/MrBoomf]

Yeah I pay more than that to go to Fenway, but I live in a HCOL area. Apples to oranges. I’m tired of the “stadium is empty” discussion. Rays up!

[u/Hiciao → u/lsda]

Honestly, people can mock you and your fanbase all they want, but they have to take out a second mortgage to go to a postseason game so joke is on them. (I say this as a snake fan. We rarely sell out, but tickets are cheap, parking is free, and I was able to go to the DS, CS, and WS in 2023)

[u/lsda → u/Hiciao]

Yep I said fuck it and put it all on a credit card. Was it a smart financial move? I don't care money is fake and baseball is forever. But I don't blame people smarter than me for not doing that

[u/banjocoyote → u/lsda]

Hell yeah brother

[u/DogVacuum → u/MrBoomf]

They all drove separately.

[u/smoresporn0 → u/MrBoomf]

On tv, it sounds like a Cleveland weekday game
