I get the theory - Interest will die out for the casual fan a week out, but I don't think that's really true. They instead bank on the business crowd coming out for their lunch break. Which gets you a few hundred boring corporate types standing around in suits in their midweek work mindset, while shutting out all the blue collar and young fans that would make the celebration fun.

A lot of the players want to go home at the end of the season and start their break. Some of these guys come up and leave family behind.
