The Colorado Rockies are already so bad that they may not sellout Opening Day

I am no Colorado Rockies historian, so I do not know for sure, but I believe every Opening Day game at Coors Field has been sold-out. That could change this year…

Even years when we as fans knew the team was likely to struggle, or the early-April weather wasn’t great, Opening Day was that one game every year where the city rallied to sell-out Coors and show the boys some love.

At the time of publishing this article, the Rockies are 1-5 and have already been outscored by 33 runs in just six games. Maybe Rockies fans have finally had enough.

The weather is supposed to be in the mid-70’s for Friday’s (Apr. 5) game, and it’s not sold-out. As a matter of fact there are quite a few tickets left.

Another problem could be the price, though. The cheapest, nosebleed ticket for the game is $80 plus fees. As most Rockies fans know, if you wait a game or two you’ll likely be able to snag those same tickets for practically nothing.
