It is my experience as a life long Royals supporter that it's the ballpark that draws people to the stadium and not the AAA caliber team put on the field. It's the same basic principle that the Cubs have been using since 1937.
Exactly, I love Kauffman stadium. It's great place to watch a ball game, regardless if the Royals lose or not. Can't wait to check out the scoreboard opening day next year either.
by that logic, they should sell the team off and use that money on a satellite system to broadcast real baseball games or even just play movies. Since people are there for the park and not the team.

It's certainly not the case with PNC Park. There aren't many fans that go to the games yet it's a very beautiful park.
