Yep '94 put a dent in my loyalty to baseball. I stop collecting cards and keeping up with all the stats of the players in baseball after that BS. I went to a free(paid for by the Chamber of Commerce) Ranger game earlier this season. There couldn't be more than five thousand fans, but because the Rangers always count the season ticketholders( I think about 12,000) irregardless if they are there or not. So the official attendance was like 17,000-20,000. Form what I understand this is what it is every night. Needless to say the Fort Worth Cats of the Texas League are becoming more popular. It only cost a buck or two to park and the best seat in the house is $9. The beer and food is reasonable, too.
