Maybe it has something to do with the MLB start?

Hey Jimmy, your reports on the discrepancy between Oakland and Pitt are very helpful, and it helped me to think more about the fan interest.
I think, however, that fan loyalty and fan interest are probably computed differently with different algorithms. Based on your experience with Oakland, your results suggest that markets with poor loyalties would likely to go up a level upon a successful season. On the other hand, it does appear that for some teams, winning does not produce any noticeable effect on fan interest.
Just an aside, I also tried White Sox. My experience is the same in that despite putting together 2 seasons winning 90+ games, all while leaving the ticket price unchanged, the fan interest is still hovering around in the 40s. Sigh...
