For all those who still seem to think a new stadium cures all that ails a franchise, we have the sadly predictable tale of the Miami Marlins.

Exhibit Q: The Marlins are on Groupon.

Despite their shiny new stadium, Miami is still 18th in attendance in baseball, averaging 28,128 per game, 75.1 percent of capacity. While that's up dramatically from last season (19,007 per game), it's still on track to be the worst season attendance-wise for a team in a new stadium since the 1982 Twins.
