[Going Underground]

I wonder what the lowest attendance is for a four game series at Camden Yards? This series should break it .

Yes, it very well might.    The weather looks decent, so maybe they’ll surprise us, but I doubt it.

It's not like Oakland has ever been a huge draw in Baltimore.

Anybody else annoyed with the spike in prices for concessions?  I mean, I get it, less fans=get more money elsewhere, but c'mon, don't alienate the fans that still come.

Yup.  On Opening Day Bud Light 16 oz bottles were $9.25, up from $8 last year.  I used to give my Bud girl 2 bucks tip.  Now she'll get .75 cents.  She can thank the Orioles.  

I had to laugh hearing Hyde talk about the great crowd on Opening Day while we were driving home that night.  I was thinking all day how this was easily the deadest crowd I have seen in the past 15 consecutive Opening Days I have attended.  I would think someone coming from the Cubs would be used to loud crowds.  Our OD crowd was dead.  And that will be the best of the year!  lol

It will be a great night to watch a game.  72 degrees at game time with 30 percent humidity.

I have to say those Mexican street tacos were a big miss.  All it is a flour shell and some meat.  Come on.

The Angelos boys need to make money.  The fees for tickets also went up when they switched to Ticketmaster.

I went to a game at Dodger Stadium last week and a foot-long Dodger Dog and a normal-sized beer I didn't recognize but assumed to be of Central American origin (was not bad) and the bill was over $20.

Yup.  Yankee Stadium is like that too!

Not a season ticket holder and me and the family was there. Great game!

Well, I guess we pretty much know what the baseline of season ticket sales is.

Spitting a little rain around gametime, a non-premium opponent, a Monday night in April on the night of the National Champsionship game.

So despite the comfortable spring weather, this was probably a perfect storm.   Little or no walkup, a game no one would have gone out of their way to buy tickets for in advance.

I guess we know that 6500 or so season tickets are sold and that will be our floor this year.
