Haven’t heard anything since then indicating how much beyond that they are now.

I wonder if it fans attending the same amount of games just wanting the first pick for playoff tickets and Opening Day next year, people attending more games, or former Bengals season ticket holders.

Love the closing line- now how do you get them to do it? The contending teams are at near capacity, do we have to get the ghost of Bill Veeck in here? The O’s alone, under Buck ought to increase attendance by 15%.
