Sad to say the streak is over

530 games in a row

It's been 6 years since there was NOT a sell out

That's pretty damn impressive

and this is when we get into how franchises and college athletic departments dont count how many people actually attend the games

Interesting.
I've been to a handful of Giants games, albeit about 10 years ago, and I just easily walked up to the gate and bought tickets.

That was before they had a run of three World Series in 6 years

You guys seem to like to hate on the Giants streak


A sellout is a sell out

I doubt it will happen, but i hope ticket sales don't decline a lot because there is no streak to preserve. The Indians had a filthy sellout over like nine years or something and were absolutely miserable in recent years attendance wise.

I'm sure you are trolling but I'll bite

Yea I was really surprised when I read about that Indians streak. Not only is Cleveland a small/mid size market, their stadium is pretty big

The 10 year streak the Red Sox had is expected

They have a smaller park and a bigger city

they didnt

i have zero idea how the giants got away with announcing sell outs for this long when its been understood that you could literally walk up to the ticket booth 5 minutes before the games started and have your pick on where you wanted sit for weekday games

I used to have an eleven-inch monster, but I fear those days are gone.
