My attendance keeps dropping for my NY Yanks in an equalized league.

I've won the WS in 2002, 2008, 2010 and the AL in 2009 as well as winning my division since 2007. It is now 2011.

My ticket prices have stayed the same (normal) throughout the entire period yet my attendance has dropped the last two seasons.

Last season I averaged 40K fans per game while this season I'm averagin 31K.

Any tips or hints on what causes attendance to drop? I'd think that if I could keep watching championship baseball for the same price that I had been paying, every game would be a sellout.

More than likely there is alot more cash stashed away by all the teams in the league. The game balances itself by decreasing attendence when there is alot of cash saved up.

Yes either that or if you have your TV rights set at Pay TV it will reduce your attendence no matter what your success rate is.
