    I'm hoping we see larger crowds than we did then. The last time it was the begining of the week and bad weather. I think, weather permitting, they will be 25,000 plus on Thursday and over 30,000 Fri-Sun.

    I hope so, I'm tired of the Cub fans coming in and listening to the "Let's go Cubbies" chants or when the 7th inning stretch comes and they say root for the Cubbies. This is the Reds opportunity to show the Cubs nation what kind of baseball town we have.

    Unfortunately the Cubs struggling usually doesn't stop them from attending Cub games. I'm with you though, I think this is the series Reds fans outnumber the Cub fans though.

    We'll get more. Our fans *normally* show up when we are winning.

    if we can't get more fans to show up now with the team around first how can we expect ownership to pony up more money come the trade deadline? its a must that we have a great turnout this next home stand.
    there's nothing like bowling a 300 game! 13 now and retired.

    I know I'll be there and I'm bringing my family. that's all I can control. Hopefully the people who are Cubs fans because it's fashionable will go away.

    I didn't know that Cub fans ever out numbered Red fans at GAB?

    When did this happen?

    Let'em sing... gotta be the blues considering the shape their team is currently in.

    I will be there! From what I have seen and heard, there have been long lines at the ticket office all week with fans getting tix for this series.

    I have been to a few games over the past three years and the Cubs fans have definitely been more vocal and I believe at times they have out numbered Reds fans. For many Cub fans in the midwest, this is the only time they can get a ticket and watch their team. Especially this year with the Cardinals selling out every game.

    I think they are just the vocal minority. I've been there, and seen a lot of Cubs fans in the stands, but it's still 5-3 Reds fans. They just like to talk trash and yell a lot. The Cincinnati crowds are more reserved. Hopefully those cheerleaders will fix that.

    Championships for MY teams in my lifetime:
    Cincinnati Reds - 75, 76, 90
    Chicago Blackhawks - 10, 13, 15
    University of Kentucky - 78, 96, 98, 12
    Chicago Bulls - 91, 92, 93, 96, 97, 98

    There are still good tix available for Thursday night on the website this morning. I haven't checked for Fri, Sat, Sun yet because I'm already set for those. But I actually had to purchase tix for tomorrow. *shudders*
