Attendance Percentage vs League Average (ATT+)
Here is the “average attendance percentage vs the league average attendance”. I guess in a way, we can call it “The Attendance Plus/ ATT+”. Just think of this as the “OPS+, wRC+ and ERA+” but it is use for for attendance.
So, how do we use the “ATT+”? The league average will equal 100. If a team’s ATT+ is 160 then the team is performing 60% better than the league average attendance. Whereas if a team’s ATT+ is at 60, then that team is performing 40% lower than the league average attendance.
- Lamigo Monkeys: 126
- Fubon Guardians: 111
- Chinatrust Brothers: 84
- Uni-Lions: 73
