“We take great pride in being one of the top drawing teams in the Pacific Coast League, which is even more remarkable considering that our ballpark has a smaller capacity than others.” said Express President Jay Miller. “Our fans take great pride in showing their support, and this attendance meter is a nice way of engaging the fans in our progress.”

When the USRT was going full throttle a few years back, we used to constantly send these sort of ideas and suggestions, complete with pictures, to Buffalo Bisons VP/General Manager Mike Buczkowski.
