Talking about bandwagon fans ? --> Thats me! I  have expressed that in some other thread.

I think that is just a natural phenomenon. You become a fan of winning team if you are not a die hard fan like me.

When Cs were slumping last year, do you know the attendence at the TD ?

You could literally get tickets for free and no one wanted to go for the Cs game. Now buying a ticket is a dream come true.

It happens every where and in every game. Same is true for baseball.

Suppose if Yankees start losing and will not make playoffs, would you see the same number of people buying tickets for the Yankee stadium ? NO.

Why do you see increase in number of fans with Florida Marlins and Tampa Bay, Rays? because they are winning.  Do you expect the same with Detroit Tigers ? NO
