I know a lot of you were appreciative and amazed over the attendance numbers I previously posted for the '90s which blew away the myth of the "diehard loyal" Astros fan compared to the "bandwagon" Rangers fan. So I dug a little deeper and what I'm about to present may just shock you even more.

For the past 30 years the Texas Rangers have had a higher average per game attendance than the Astros.

Avg/G (1984-2013)
Rangers 29,243
Astros 26,524

What's even more shocking are the attendance differences during winning and losing seasons.

Avg Attendance during winning seasons (1984-2013)
Rangers 31,329
Astros 26,971

Avg Attendance during losing seasons (1984-2013_
Rangers 27,156
Astros 22,516

For the past 30 years, the Astros have had 19.79% more fans in attendance during winning seasons than losing seasons compared to 15.37% for the Rangers. Thus, proving that Astros fans are the true bandwagon fans showing up more when they win. It is a proven undeniable fact. And despite the Rangers having far more losing seasons than the Astros for 30 years, their fans showed up more overall. Cold. Hard. Fact.

I like the Astros more than I like the rangers

I thought last word was called on this topic yesterday... can we at least let it simmer until the next epic series between the Rangers and Astros?

holy sh-t you're awful, Lacy.

All that proves is Astros fans are much more educated than Rangers fans. Pay for the product when it's winning, not losing.

Meh, I'd like to see the numbers comparison had the Astros been playing ball outside for the past 30 years. I think the summer heat hurts Rangers attendance, though there are always pretty small crowds during the work week.

I didn't anyone could be more if a bleeding gash than Muy

Even as a lurker on this board, I need to chime and note what a stupid obsessed B this chick lacy is.

Geez, get over it loser

Can't we all just agree that San Antonio sucks.

look we have a higher attendance for games than you.. that makes us awesome

glad someone cares enough to post this crap

Hard hitting?

Astros fans aren't taking this very well. The "Rangers fans are bandwagon newcomers" myth was their last life preserver.

It amazes me how much Dallas fans care about MLB now. Not even a mention of the mavs who won it all a few years ago and cowboys game threads were getting 40 posts on them by the end of the year.

But here are rangers fans, starting post after post pumping up the MLB like its Americas game.

Every single person on this thread is telling you what a dumbass you are. If only Hood were here......

I mean, at this point, it would be better if your supposedly hetero husband unleashed one of his epic gay porn blasts.

Bohunk, I knew personal insults would probably happen in the face of a simple post containing factual data. Sometimes people take it out on the messenger and I'm afraid I'm no different.

Lacy, it's time to pop smoke.

at times like this I would rather read a thread started by anne or even patch

Lacy, dear, many of us either don't care about either team or follow both teams(me). You are going nuts.

Take a week off---Staff

I'm not to blame for this. It was Astros fans who flew off the cuff about the johnny come lately Rangers fan. I guess they figured they'd never get called on it.

Hey, Bosephus. What I can do for you?

At this point the only way Lacy will escape the wrath of this board will be to post pics of her tits. Or those of a hot woman.

This is a pathetic thread, lacy. What the hell is the point of another attendance smack thread

See the wise advice from Switzerland.

The point was to annoy Bohunk

When you are posting stuff on the Internet to "annoy" people you've never met and who've never met you, you may want to step away from the computer.

Sweet, when is the trophy presentation and parade for yet another Ranger moral victory?

Why is anne logging on lacy's TA account?

MLB attendance smack.

What an absolute abortion.

Bohunk, let's be real. Astros fans brought this on themselves.

A 30 year old mom trying to "annoy" a bunch of anonymous men on the Internet by taking the time to look up the attendance of baseball teams from the past 30 years. Priceless.
