Indians' Promotions

[redlegsfan21]

Are the Indians really desperate for fans. Some of these promotions just seem silly

Kerry Wood Bobblehead (the guy is in his first year on the team)
Free Money Night/Free Money Envelopes (are you kidding?)
Lifeguard Slider Bobble Belly (?????)
Surfin' Sizemore Bobblehead (when have the Indians ever been related to surfing)
Mustard Hot Dog Bobsterz (A Hot Dog?)

At least you actually get something you can USE. You forgot the Onion plush doll :rolleyes:

The "Bark in the Park" thing is so unbelievably stupid. Yeah, I really want to go to a Reds game full of barking dogs that piss and crap all over the stadium. I avoid that day (dayS now) like the plague.

The Shin Soo Choo 80s Bobblehead looks interesting. I got the Grady Sizemore driving a convertible "Bobblecar" last year. Now I'm stuck with two of those pieces of junk.

It was on the day of the doubleheader (Sept. 13) and we stayed for the 2nd game. It wasn't like we made the trip just to get them :)

For some strange reason, people like bringing their dogs to the ballpark which is why there are TWO Bark in the Parks. At least the others have a use. Bobbleheads bring nothing to the table. Of course, everytime the Reds have a bobblehead, the entire city shows up.

Bobbleheads bring nothing to the table.Someone's never heard of ebay. When they gave Thome bobbleheads to only kids, both my kids sold 'em for almost $50 each

When's string cheese night coming back?:D

I want to go to a game at the stadium where they have as a promotion the Smelt Night.

Here is how the Smelt Night works. When you go to the game you bring one Smelt Fish. They will give you one Smelt Fish. Then you will have two Smelt Fishes (fishies).

If you bring in two Smelt Fishes they will give you two Smelt Fishes and you will have four Smelt Fishes.

And so on.

After the game they cook up all of the Smelt Fishes and everyone has the nice Smelt Fish for dinner.

:dance

You don't know how much that Rich Vaughn bobblehead is awesome. Seriously, I need to figure out a way to buy it from someone. Ebay will probably rip me off.

That was a great Crystal routine!!! I remember when that originally aired I was on the floor.

He who "smelt" it, dealt it.
On the bobbles- Our illustrious marketing department and the genius that runs it would have a bobble night every night if possible. It puts a lot of butts in the seats. Well actually a lot of them come down, get the bobble and leave, but it sells a ticket. We still hafta pay off Delucci's salary ya know. We do have the Indians Hall of Fame induction in August where, ironically, they are inducting Bill Veeck. Now there was a great owner!
