Laugh if you want, but its partially true, and the casual fans who are positively affected probably don't even know it. Just like some fans buy tickets partially for the Sheridan's frozen custard, partially for the kiddie playground, and oh yeah partially for this whole baseball game thing against the Chicago whosits too.
Its all part of the fan experience and all of them would probably say they are going to watch the game, but all this stuff costs money. Do you think these teams are stupid and blowing money on bells and whistles for nothing? If we all sat on benches and the PA announcer didn't say a word between innings, that shouldn't make a difference, we're all there for the game, right? Just get your hot dog and beer, sit down, and watch the game.
