Promo Nights - Sneak Peek!

Promotional (or "Promo") Nights are the lifeblood of the minor leagues. They are the themes around which all of a game's surrounding entertainment is based. Promo Nights range from outrageous and outlandish to respectful and ceremonial. No matter what they are, though, the nights are all designed to make a night at the ballpark more fun!

Last season, we feel like we had our best Promo schedule ever, and this year, we plan on clearing the bar and raising it even higher. We'll carry over some of the more popular nights, and introduce some new ones as well.

We're still in the process of deciding on some of the nights, and there are still lots of ideas being bounced back and forth. As mentioned in the brainstorming recap, specific people will be taking ownership of specific nights, and putting their own individual touches on them.

It's still a "rough draft" list, but as a reader of the Blog, you deserve a sneak peek at some of the ideas that may wind up on the 2008 Promo Schedule: Saved By the Bell Night, Going Green Night, Backwards Night, American Gladiators Night, Superhero Night, Medieval Times Night, "Bury the Hatchet" Night, Pirate Night, Heritage Nights, Country Western Night, Baby's First Ballgame, and Bark in the Park.

Again, some of these might not make the final cut, and new ones are popping up every day. But this gives you a glimpse into the creation process, and an idea of some of what's in store this summer!
