Crowds have been smaller this year. After years of championship quality baseball, the Astro fans know dogshit when they see it.

Because it's the middle of the afternoon and in the eyes of their fans who have seen 4 World Series it's just a shitty play-in series.

In other words, the loyal fanbase isn’t as devoted as they want you to think.

Because an entertainment entity chose to place one of their premium products during a date and time when very few people can actually see said product. Worse yet, they went out of their way to make it very difficult to find on tv


I’ve said it before but there’s not a league in history that has tried harder to be less popular

Because Cheating Astros fans are as fair weather as it gets.

Didn’t hurt Atlanta’s crowd.

It was literally streaming on Peacock.

I went to a Yankees home game in the last series of the Yankees season when they were playing the orioles and battling for the division, and tickets were cheap and plentiful. It was a Friday night game, beautiful weather and the stadium barely got loud. There were plenty of open seats around us. I was pretty underwhelmed with Yankees fandom

The start time of every game of that series was affected by weather.

I think even casual Astros fans realize they now have lost 8 straight home playoff games

And the White Sox are not a draw

I will fly to Boston or Chicago the next time I see them in person

I’m 2-7 at home in WS games in Houston

This was 9/26/25. It was beautiful and at 7:02 the stadium was maybe 40% full. The game was entertaining with lots of homers, but the atmosphere was disappointing
