Many one-time skeptics of the TinCaps and Parkview Field have converted to fans by the end of the championship-winning season.
City leadership hoped to draw more people downtown by placing Parkview field there. This season, attendance at the ballpark has soared by 40%. That includes many people who were skeptical the Citys decision to spend millions on the park. Now many people say they think the city made the right choice.
Lewis Campos says he was a skeptic but now he is a fan, "I was skeptical because I didnt think Ft. Wayne would think outside the box...going to the stadium and seeing the whole environment, I think they did a really good job."
