And I don't even consider myself a really huge baseball fan - but if I can take part for $5, I'm in. The Marlins are never going to get the jet skiing/nightclub crowd, but jebus, you have to really try in order to get that few people.

I wonder if part of it is that the stadium was obviously built with a bit of fraud (hence the SEC looking into it), so the folks of Miami are deciding to say screw the Marlins for that as well as the team sucking.
