Earlier this year the Padreshosted the second lowest attendance in Petco Park's 10 year history. Last night they managed to lure 14,316 fans to the park which ranked 3rd in the bottom 10 list of lowest attendance. Coincidentally both games were ended in walk-off fashion.

Speaking of walk-off fashion, how about FSSD reporter Kris Budden snapping into the Angelina Jolie pose as her first instinct when approached for the Ice Bucket Challenge? All style, that one.
Anyway, looking at the list, we can see that only in 2009 did the Padres have more games in the bottom 10.
The reason I checked the attendance was because I went on Labor Day this past Monday and swore it would be ranked. The place looked as empty as I'd ever seen it but apparently there were 18,564. I'm really bad at guessing attendance.
