Attendance at Kauffman Stadium through the first 15 games of the Royals season is down about 34 percent compared to the same span of games last year.
Average ticket sales have checked in at 17,450 — 8,861 below the average in 2017.
Unseasonable weather affected single-game sales in early April, when the temperature in Kansas City averaged 37 degrees through April 13, according to data compiled by Major League Baseball. A snow storm on April 1, the first Sunday home game of the year, forced a postponement of the Royals' third game. Another weather system swooped into the region the weekend of April 13, bringing with it rain that turned into snow by the end of the Royals’ 5-3 loss to the Angels on April 14.
