OK, and that means what? He never said he hated the organization. He said he does not feel welcome. So it means he’s not gonna be as present as he would like or the fans will like, or even the respected players of the past that showed up when he was a player
Who owns the Yankees Hall of Fame Steinbrenner or Brian Cashman?
Isn’t it the owners’ job to make sure the legends that elevated the value of your franchise feel welcomed?
It’s like the owner has no say or takes no accountability for the legends not feeling welcomed to HIS TEAM!!
Most of the fan base lives in Tampa proper. I’m not talking about this week. I’m talking about in general. Most people are not gonna get a ticket plan to get off of work, go across the bridge, watch a game, and go back again across the bridge. Especially when there’s very little to do within walking distance of the stadium, it’s a bad location, so ticket plans are not bought. For example, the lightning have about 16,000 people with ticket plans. The Rays 1000
I’m not talking specific to playoff games in this week. I am talking about the location of the stadium being far away from Tampa proper where the majority of people work. The reason why tickets were cheaper in Tampa than the Milwaukee is because Milwaukee has more season tickets and partial ticket plans, so less seats were out to the general public in Tampa and a stadium that could hold up to 50,000, I say up to 90 to 95% of the tickets were available to the general public, while the rest were allocated to their season and partial ticket holders. Everyone is saying that people sold their tickets. No, they never had the tickets to sell. It was out to the general public with no ZIP Code jail fencing, fewer fans, so how much cheaper they were, and they have a bigger honestly, more hungry fan base and grabbed them up
An example is the Tampa Bay Lightning in Tampa. have about 16,000 season/partial season ticket holders. That’s 16 X more than the Rays.
And you don’t understand what I’m saying. I’ve looked. There’s about seven restaurants around the area, and I’m talking within a quarter of a mile radius, because nobody’s gonna walk half a mile. No one’s gonna walk a mile in Florida summer, I know the pier is like two miles away and there’s great restaurants there but nobody is walking that. and no one’s gonna try to find parking down there, eat, and then have to pay again for parking inside the stadium
Again, look at the battery in Atlanta. There’s about 25 restaurants within a quarter of a mile of the stadium? that means you park, you could eat food, chill at bars, and walk to the stadium, and it’s a five- minute walk
It’s not about driving over a bridge for a week. It’s about not heaven, a strong ticket holding fan base. Does when set tickets are available? Not ZIP Code lock 3X cheaper, the stronger fan base is gonna buy them out. There’s a reason why Milwaukee that has a lower GDP than Tampa tickets were astronomically high because a lot of them tickets were locked in supply and demand
I’m not taking a client to a hotel to eat dinner. I’m not talking about clients where they stay. I’m talking about in the area. There’s no places within walking distance there is no restaurant in the stadium. Go to Atlanta, check out the battery. The issue starts during the regular season.
That’s all you have, though. If I’m a business, I’m not buying a season ticket plan. I have no place to take clients. I’m not taking them to a sports bar. There’s no real food options inside the stadium. Wow, one place with food trucks and food on paper
I’m talking about the 81 games a year and why they don’t have a decent ticket holder fan base about 1000 people have a partial ticket plan ticket we’re mostly all GA!!
Well Pettitte is white and it seems Cashman has ruined all international ties the Yankees had. When was the last time they had a great Latin player besides Soto for one season? they don’t draft, they don’t sign nothing
