Fighters to Promote a Dating Game
AQ nice little twist that a team in the United States could promote to attract fans. http://www.npbtracker.com/2009/05/more-than-a-game/ reports that the Figthers will be selling 100 special tickets, 50 for single males and 50 for single females. The male fans will get a recognizable symbol that they attach to their clothing. The female fan will get a card to match that symbol. Couples will then be assigned randomly depending on the mark, with seat changes to occur each inning to add to the fun.
The games are scheduled for July 11 and July 12. The female tickets sold out on the first day they were made available. The male tickets are still available, with only 10 tickets being sold. It reminds me of the line in a Mash movie where Hawkeye asks “What does everyone want?” and the response is to “go home”. Then Hawkeye asks “What do they really want?” and the response is “Sex. Except of course for those baseball perverts.” Quote reminder courtesy of http://baseballoverhere.blogspot.com/.
