The Diamondbacks are in a dispute with Maricopa County over the condition of Chase Field. The Diamondbacks were told by County officials that the County cannot afford to pay for the upgrades the Diamondbacks are demanding.
On Friday, MBQF, a public opinion survey consulting firm, conducted recent public opinion survey which shows that while the Diamondbacks might not be happy, their fans are very happy.
The survey, conducted on March 24, 2016 of likely Maricopa County voters who responded “Yes” to having attended an Arizona Diamondbacks game within the last 2 years aked: In your opinion, when you were there, what would you judge the condition of the stadium?
| Very Good | Good | Poor | Very Poor | No Opinion |
| 61.2% | 31.9% | 2% | 1% | 3.9% |
The Arizona Diamondbacks are requesting $200 million upgrade for deferred maintenance and upgrades to the stadium. As a Maricopa County taxpayer, would you support spending tax dollars for this?
| Yes | No | Not Sure/Undecided |
| 18.9% | 62.7% | 18.4% |
MBQF Principal Mike Noble concluded, “The Arizona Diamondbacks desire for taxpayers to step up to the plate with nearly $200 million is a big swing and a miss,” Noble said. “Fans believe Chase Field is still a first-class facility and prefer to sing Take Me Out to the Ballgame at the corner of Jefferson and 4th Street.”
