A lot of shitty teams refuse to adjust and follow the NBA model of offering really cheap seats.
The bleacher section of most ballparks is still 20+ dollars then you have to include food and parking.
What teams need to do is lower the cost of seating in order to bring back the average fan and families.

The Orioles have been doing that and it really hasn't helped attendance much. A shitty product is a shitty product. The reasons for the decline in attendance have been covered in this thread. There's been zero competitive balance in the American League and the weather has been absolutely dreadful.

Offer some $8 bleacher seats to fill those seats up...especially on weekday games. Then profit off the concessions and parking from the extra fans.

You can easily get $10 to $15 bleacher tickets for Braves games during weekdays.

Like who?I'm not but I would guess teams like KC,Cincinnati,Tampa and Miami offer really cheap seats.
