You state that 36,850 people attended the game and that represents a 90% of capacity. This is correct, but what you fail to mention is that the average attendance for the Cubs this year is 38,559. http://espn.go.com/mlb/attendance One of your statements is misleading.

That apparently was a language Arizona voters understood, because faced with losing millions of dollars, they finally recognized the holiday and got Super Bowl XXX in Tempe. Seems like the people got their voices heard just fine. “It’s America and you have the right to protest.
