2041-01: Talons Wonder: Why Are the Talons Leading the BBA in Attendance?? Talons Say: 'That's a Really Good Question'.

Phoenix, AZ--

The Talons were going through StatsPlus tonight, mainly because they had to log in to the site in order to set their draft to AUTO, like most years.

But in the midst of doing so, they noticed something strange. The Phoenix Talons are currently leading the BBA in, believe it or not, Attendance. Yes, thats right, more fans have seen the Talons play than any other team in the league. Why?

"We frankly have no idea," explained the head of the Talons Department of Facilities, Parking, and Fan Experience. "I mean, the team isn't even that good. Have you seen the starting pitching? They can hit, and they actually have the best bullpen in the league, but without any starting pitching to speak of, this is just a bad team masquarading as a Wild Card contender."

"But for some reason, the fans have been fooled," he continued. "I guess they like cheap stuff. Yeah our tickets are cheap, but we also have $2 Mike's Hard Lemonades and $1 hot dogs. Oh and we also have $3 Sushi. And $10 Ribeye Steak And Baked Potato Platters. I guess the fans really like that, because the baseball product on the field frankly sucks right now," he said.

Anyway, its like April 21st and things will change. But for now, the club is leading the Brewster in SOMETHING, so we might as well write a team news about it.

That is, if the Black Sox say its OK.

GO Talons!

One of the first signs of heat stroke is an affinity for $3 sushi. Another is attending a Talons game in person. The Sox advise cold compresses for the entire Phoenix metropolitan statistical area.

The Sox are fine with the Talons writing this TN item, but issue a stern warning against making a habit of this. No further TNs this season are warranted.

Unless, of course, the Talons drop the price of sushi to $2.

Misquoting a dad joke:

You don’t buy $3 sushi. You only rent it for a short time.

Time to slash sushi prices and consider adding a budget chimichanga option ...
