Yes, a lot fo it was Orioles support, but the Capitals went through this same thing (heavy opposition turnouts for visits by the Penguins, Sabres, Red Wings - much worse-behaved than opposition support at Nats Park)...just points up more that we need to build a winner here...the attendance will grow, and if the team finally does make post-season we'll start taking back our house, just as the Caps did.
