Gangbusters: outstandingly excellent or successful
I have never operated a major league baseball team, so I will just roll with Dave from Flushing who, in February said sales were going gangbusters.
Via NY Times.
And sales of what are known as full-season equivalents — a mix of small and large season-ticket packages — are projected to top out at 10,000 this year, less than half the total sold just two years ago. Without any major player signings after last season’s 79-83 record, there might not be much for fans to root for.
The Mets would not comment on their financial situation, other than to say that ticket sales for the 2011 season are up over the same time last year.
Maybe March hasn’t gone as well as February? Maybe 10,000 is gangbusters? Maybe “We Play For The Die Hards” isn’t a slogan, it’s a fact. What do you guys think?
The Times article is very interesting, seems to be the talk of the town, and Media Goon broke it down last night because I was sleepy. Thanks MG.
