I remember being the only guy cheering for the Cannons at Franklin Covey Field in Salt Lake one gorgeous summer afternoon in 1997, I went to more Canadians games than Cannons games for sure though. Story is the same, except they ripped Vancouver's club the year after they won the AAA World Series.

I still go to a bunch of single-A C's games every year, and guys like Rich Harden and Nick Swisher have rolled through town since they brought the team from Oregon, but now it's way more about the atmosphere of Nat Bailey than checking out guys who might play in the bigs.
