Update - over 114,000 fans came to watch this last 3 game series with the NYY.

So no i don't think the stadium is "too big" for our team.

Nice to see a full stadium for a change, but unfortunately, we don't play the Yankees on prime time every game.

I think there are too many seats, yes. I believe most of the newer stadiums have lower seating capacities. I think a capacity similar to what the Pirates have (38,000), would be ideal.

Connolly has been on a tear today, claiming attendance being down massively is just a figment of our imagination. All the fans from the last time the team was good are back!!  All it took was winning according to him. So glad we are back to drawing 2.3m a season just like the last time when they were good! Oh what is that...they are only on pace for 1.8m?? Uhhh..........I'm sure that 500k can be explained away by........something. Anyone have any ideas about what might have changed in the last 10 years or so? Nothing! according to Dan. Nothing at all. I love how he waits til a national televised Yankee weekend series to start waxing poetic about how great attendance is.

Dan Connolly got laid off by The Athletic he is probably trying to get hired by MASN/Orioles.
