It's their home game? That doesn't seem fair. I'm sure they'll enjoy the money though.

I do notice a lack of growth. I was hoping for more engagement here. I post the exact same weather stuff on X that I do here, and the X posts get much more engagement. ( along with bots and crazy people)

Neither look like a 100% chance of sunny and dry. But of the two, I'd say go Saturday.
