From Newsday. ] Turnstiles have a good year, too September 20, 2006 When Josh Willingham's lazy fly ball dropped into Cliff Floyd's glove in leftfield Monday night, ending the Mets' 18-year division title drought, the ecstatic crowd of 46,729 at Shea Stadium fittingly set an all-time season attendance record. The team has sold 3,087,648 tickets at home this season. "Winning is the ultimate attraction but I do think New York is attracted to this team because of its composition," said Dave Howard, the Mets' executive vice president for business operations. "You have the fact that this is a diverse team ethnically. It's diverse in terms of age. You have veterans. You've got young and up-and-coming players. It's a team that has played a scrappy, resilient brand of baseball that New Yorkers are attracted to."
