Sports is an interesting conundrum. Do you spend first to attract or do you build and hope they come, then spend? That’s why it’s becoming more and more a rich man’s game. Something about Florida leads me to believe there is simply too many distractions vs a traditionally quiet sport like baseball, to attract the average person. There’s simply too many other things to do than watch a baseball game. So owners probably do want to spend money to attract people, but aren’t sure if there will eventually be a payoff. To me they need to spend more on marketing to attract fans, then spend accordingly. But totally agree that the organization is run poorly. On the surface it’s seems like prime location but I think it’s a tough market to well…market
