Record Attendance
With a week to go in the regular season, MLB set a new attendance record.
The average of 32,710 was up 4 percent from last year's final average of 31,423 and on pace to top the record of 31,632 set in 1994 before a strike interrupted the season.
As you can see by looking at the bottom of the list, there's a lot of room for growth. Putting 10,000 more a game in Florida and Tampa would add another 1.6 million to the total.

You could look at it another way and say that if Florda and Tampa Bay were contracted out of their leagues, it wouldn't make much of a dent.
