Inane commentary on a game that deserves far better


Tuesday, July 13, 2004

Update: have gotten a couple emails that say I've overstated the Whalen effect on ticket sale tomorrow.

The Lynx sold close to 12,000 for matinee games last year and the year before. The annual matinee game is filled with thousands of little kids from Day Camps around the Twin Cities. In large part due to the Day Camp event, advance ticket sales for this game were high even before the draft, and hence before anyone knew Lindsay would be on the Sun.
