He also believes that the Rockies made a mistake by not replacing team president Keli McGregor with someone from outside the organization when McGregor died suddenly in 2010. Instead, Monfort stepped into the role until April 2021 when COO and executive vice president Greg Feasel was promoted to the position.“The only way I know to get the owner’s attention is to not give him my money so that’s what I’ve done,” Findley said.
“So I did call him and we spoke for about 20 minutes on the phone,” Gandarilla said. “He was very pleasant and he did his best to convince me about the direction of the Rockies.” There is, however, a caveat to the Rockies’ 2023 drawing power: Through August, attendance was up 9% across MLB this season. That’s a total increase of more than 4 million fans and an average of 2,424 more per game.
“We go to the team store. We get in line for Dinger. And we catch a few innings together, too! The 5-year-old is starting to enjoy watching all sports, and we’ve already sat to watch more baseball this year — at the park and on TV — than we have in the past. As a dad, it’s just great to see my kids having fun.”
Fans of other teams take full advantage of the summer nights and prices. Those who have relocated to Colorado, and those who vacation here, often turn Coors into a home park for visiting teams. Chants of, “Let’s Go Mets!” or “Let’s Go Dodgers!” drown out Rockies fans. When the Chicago Cubs come to town, some Rockies fans bemoan Coors as “Wrigley Field West.”
