How 'Bout Them Nats?


A quick update this morning to my Tuesday blog, in which I discussed the inevitability that the Nationals season attendance in their new stadium will be a disappointment. The park is tough to get to after the evening rush hour, and DC has fairweather fans. Last night, with the temperatures in the 60's under balmy skies, the announced crowd was 23,340 - that's tickets sold, not butts in seats. The stadium looked much emptier than than that when I flipped past the game on TV, but by then, of course, the Nats were trailing the Marlins, 10 - 2. I'm just sayin'.
