Padres Still Grasping at Straws


In their never-ending quest to find people who actually want to come out and watch their games, the Padres are implementing changes to the in-game fan experience at Petco Park.
"In-game fan experience" is another way of saying the club wants to distract you from how boring, bland and mediocre the product on the field is. And the Padres are hoping John and Jane Fan will leap off their sofa and order season tickets at any moment because exciting new music will be played between innings.
Many of the changes to the in-game program reportedly are being made to educate the fans. Yeah, that's always a good idea in any business -- insult the intelligence of your paying customers.
So basically, the team's brain trust is saying its fans need to be educated.
Nice to know the Padres think their fans are idiots.
