Padres Taking Page from Wizards Book?
The San Diego Padres, parent club of the Fort Wayne Wizards will start something “new” in July in an effort to bring fans to their brilliant and beautiful ballpark.
When the “July Dollar Days” get started, fans can purchase $1 hot dogs, $1 soft drinks and get $1 off all beer during July home games.
“We are excited about this program, which is based in part on input from our fans,” said Padres CEO Sandy Alderson. “We hope July Dollar Days will provide some relief to all our fans from higher gas prices and the current overall economy” [source: MLB.com]
While a month of “Dollar Days” seems like a grand gesture, the Padres have just nine home games during the month of July. And, if you’re looking for something a little closer to home, the Wizards have a Dollar Day on Monday June, 30th, two Dollar Days during July and two in August. $1 Hot Dogs, $1 Soft Drinks, $1 Beer (that’s $1 . . . not $1 off, like the Friars). Don’t forget about Thirsty Thursday’s either.
