The stands were empty. I think it was mentioned that attendance was either 13 or 23k. I'm pretty sure that stadium holds close to 40k.

Of course, lose too many seasons and you cannot provide a fun environment at games.

I don't really know if there is a connection or not.
It's because they suck. Check out the successful teams, like the Yanks, Phils, etc. They're always packed, and those tix are more expensive than a ticket at Camden Yards.
