It's weird... people I never knew even followed baseball are asking for extra Nationals tickets.  I know we've always maintained that all the Nats needed to do was start winning and the people would come, I just never expected it to happen this quickly.

I'm still surprised (pleasantly) by the 32k we turned out for that afternoon Mets match Thursday-before-last (and almost all Nats fans too - Mets aren't bringing the away support like they used to at RFK). Granted that R. A. Dickey is becoming a major crowd-puller with his unbelievable pitching, but 32k for a weekday afternoon is phenomenal no matter how one looks at it.
