Thanks for the link and the info. As for next years tickets, I wonder
how the suites are selling? I've heard that companies buying suites
will be able to use the suites for non-game/private events with
catering. This should be attractive to the numerous law firms,
associates, etc. littering the DC area.

"The team has drawn 1.7 million fans to RFK through 71 home games, and it
is perfectly reasonable to expect that total to reach 2 million by the
end of this homestand."

"The Nats drew 2.15 million last year even with the television issue
unresolved for part of the season. "
