Judging from the imbeciles in the stands in Miami, they go to the ballpark to stare at their phones and take a siesta.
Happens at other ballparks too.
While we are told attendance is at near record highs, I wonder how many of these people are really baseball fans. I swear some people sitting near me are chit chatting the whole game, playing with a cellular phone, and not even watching the game.
About any game you see highlights from, the stands are half empty.
And these are all modern, smaller parks than in the 70s, with capacities in the 40K range.
Football stadiums are almost completely full (well, for decent teams), with capacities of up to 100K.
