Isn't it pathetic..?

Question

..that the only time the Marlins get more than 1,500 people at a game is when they are playing the Cubs? And that 70% of the people are Cubs fans?

Now another 2 questions, why is it like this? It's not like they are a bad team they should be able to get a decent fan base. And if this continues for the next couple years, should the Marlins be dropped from the MLB?

Answer 1

Cause the fans are so accustomed to the team losing that they have no faith in the team and believe they will fall easily. Not that there's  anything wrong with that but at least show a little interest.

Answer 2

the Marlins dont' have a big enough fan base. Even when they won the world Series they had to sell off most the team the next year b/c they were losing money due to attendance and things like that. They'll probably move the team soon or hire someone that can do some sports marketing and bring in fans. The dolphins, the Hurricans suck too, why is that?

Answer 3

The main reason is cause the Cubs rock. We Cub fans follow our team wherever they go. And about dropping the Marlins from the MLB no I don't think so. THey just need to as you say get a better fan base.

Answer 4

mainly met fans in port st lucie and it is florida there old retired people or young people surfing all the time
