Quakes Opening Day!

What up my brothas?!

Mark your calenders for April 5th, 2007, that is opening day for the Rancho Cucamonga Quakes at the Epicenter! They start the season vs. Lake Elsinore Storm.

I do have some concerns though for this season, namely what kind of promotions will be put on for home games. Last year, there were daily promotions such as Monday Madness, which consisted of a $12 package that included 2 tickets, 2 dogs, 2 drinks, and 2 popcorns. Not bad! Tuesdays was music night, Wednesdays was "Winnie Wednesdays" with $1 hot dogs, "Thirsty Thursdays" was $1 beers and sodas, Friday "Family Night" with fireworks and for $40 you got 4 tickets, 4 dogs, 4 drinks, and a Gameworks coupon. This year i called them and the only things confirmed were Winnie Wednesdays, Thirsty Thursday, and fireworks on Fridays. They were undecided on bringing back any of the other stuff. I would be very disappointed if they didn't bring back the Monday Madness. I went to many of the Monday games just for the deal! Anyway, maybe we should petition them to bring back the deal of something similar at least.

Also, some of the new ideas for promotions I think are just retarded. On the Quakes website http://www.rcquakes.com/ they have a survey of which promotion people want to see. The lame choices are: Unemployment night; Mullet/80's night (which wouldn't be too bad if it were just 80's no mullets); Football night (football? at a baseball game?); Tattoo night; and Future night. Who was the ad wizard that thought of this crap?!

Anyway, here's to hopefully a really fun season of Quakes baseball!
