Would a free ticket giveaway work for the White Sox?

The Tribune’s Paul Sullivan answers your questions (or, this week, question). Ask Sully your question here.

Why don’t the Sox stage a free ticket giveaway like the A’s? They would at least sell a lot of beer, hot dogs and merchandise, and Guaranteed Rate Field would be packed. J.K., Chicago

Good question, though I’m not sure it would be as successful as the A’s giveaway, which takes place tonight against the White Sox in honor of their 50th anniversary in Oakland.

Like the A’s, the Sox have had trouble drawing fans this early.
