They just showed a bleacher view and it looked like there was quite a bit of solid blue in the upper bleachers. Unfortunate TBay can have such a competitive team yet lacks the ability to sellout.

Announced as the first sellout since Opening Day for Tampa Bay. TB is listed as the 28th team on the attendance list for MLB in 2011....which is a joke. Tampa Bay fans are disgraceful in the way they support the team.

The same thing happens in Arizona. Its just not enough fan base, a lot of people who live in Tampa and Arizona are from some place else.

Tampa bay Rays have always had this problem. At what point does upper management/ownership decide that a different location is a financially viable decision?
