974 People Reportedly Attended the White Sox Home Opener Against the Rays

The White Sox are having a rough few days.

Their North Side rivals canceled their home opener because of some snow Monday, while the Sox played through the crazy weather conditions.

As a result, the attendance wasn't ideal for the Sox's Major League home opener against the Rays.

While the paid attendance announced during the game was 10,377, the actual attendance was 974, according to the Tampa Bay Times.

Both teams don't have great records — the White Sox are 3–7 and the Rays are 3–8.

Plus, the weather was atrocious and the game was during the afternoon while many were working.
