1. 20-25
2. Days off from work. Promotions were a nice bonus, but seldom the only reason to go to the ballpark.
3. Yes. The Yakima Bears left town, for greener pastures in Oregon. Did not go to a Wenatchee Apple Sox game either last summer, no reason.
4. Fireworks.
5. Parker Field in Yakima was built in the late 30's. Many amenities were poor quality and the food got progressively worse as the team closed shop. No factor, other than nostalgia.
6. 45 miles from Ellensburg to Yakima.
7. Only if it was made before 1980. Which was often still at the merchandise stand in 2012.
8. Not really, regionally appealing.
9. Three
10. Absolutely a factor. Ticket, parking & concession prices. I could attend a Yakima Bears game with my daughter for less than $25.
