Don't Show Up At Shea? Does this Look like 54,242 To You?

Yes yes yes, I understand it's paid attendance.

Well 54,242 people allegedly had tickets for today.    A few facts about today:
  • a giveaway (Wagner bobblehead)
  • a big division game against the Marlins
  • a game that's part of the 7-pack that gets you the final game at Shea
  • a Mr. Mets Dash (cancelled after they heard one thunderclap.  I can't kill them for the decision - they don't need a kid killed by lightning.
So you'd expect a big crowd.  A big 54,000 crowd.

But where is everyone?  Here's the crowd during the second inning (above), and then again in the sixth (below).
