BigBubba Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 On the bright side, if the stadium's state-of-the-art, then it will help attendance numbers even to people who don't give a flying about baseball, but want to see that stadium. In their first full year in the SkyDome, the Jays drew 3.9 million fans, and then proceeded to reach 4 million three straight seasons. Then again, they were also winning pennants. Oh well, it will at least help a bit, and really, you can't do much worse. Nobody cares about your humungous-big signature. PotD: 29/1/12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eriqjaffe Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 I have chosen a spot on Google Maps Street View at complete freaking random, as evidenced by the fact that I clearly haven't had a lot of time since my last post to go around e-throwing e-darts at an e-map.http://maps.google.c...2,76.15,,0,4.07Even in this slum, behold! Bright colors! I spot light blue, some pink, sort of a melon color here and there.Dude, you're not from Cleve.....Miami. You just wouldn't understand.I guess the Columbus Blue Jackets should start using these colors too then.Looks like the White Sox got it just about perfect.

vman Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 Like I siad, they may be a product of 90's trend, but that is when they were born and that's the colors they should present. The Grizzles and Sharks never truly embraced it quite like the Hornets and Marlins did.The Sharks didn't?I suppose, but IMO, teal and ice hockey just don't mesh well. It wasn't ugly, but I think no other teams compared to the Hornets and Marlins when using teal.The Sharks original look was outright the best implementation of teal in pro sports. They chose the perfect shade of it. The Hornets and Marlins IMHO still had a bit too much aqua/green in it to make it work, which is why they aged quicker and seemed more gimmicky than San Jose. The Sharks could have stuck with their original color set and still seemed up to date. And here I was thinking the Buffalo Bisons had the worst attendance of any pro baseball team in the States. I was driving by their stadium one day and saw pretty much this scene in the ballpark, but even they had more fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eRay Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 People keep talking about them selling a lot based on the colors repping Miami, or the design being more out-there than other baseball identities. But what if they had made their colors match the Heat? No doubt the Heat sell very well down there, and if you need a cap to match your jersey...boom, Marlins sell a cap. Seems to work in Boston and Pittsburgh. Not to say that's the only reason those clubs sell hats, but it doesn't hurt. Make an outlandish-type design that reps Miami, and is also in Heat colors. Bad idea? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
