Hooks Home Tuesday, Rodeo Weekend Ahead 

CORPUS CHRISTI - The six-game homestand at Whataburger Field runs Tuesday, May 3 thru Sunday, May 8 as your Double-A Astros take on the San Antonio Missions, farm club of the San Diego Padres. Daily discounts, Bud Light Friday Fireworks and a weekend packed with giveaways fill out the lineup card.

Join the Hooks as they ride into Rodeo Weekend wearing special-edition uniforms. The Budweiser Clydesdales will take a pregame tour around the ballpark on Friday, May 6, with mutton busting setting the stage for postgame fireworks. Please note the special 3:05 start time Saturday, allowing fans to enjoy the Buc Day’s Illuminated Night Parade. Whataburger Field sits near the parade route.

A ticket from the May 3-8 Hooks homestand will act as a FREE Buc Days single-day, gate-entry ticket, providing access to the Stripes Carnival, Treasure Island, Buckin’ Marlin Stage, BBQ on the Bay, and other non-Arena attractions.

The rodeo jerseys worn by the Hooks this weekend can be bid on at cchooks.com/auction. The jersey auction runs to Sunday, May 8. Proceeds benefit Camp Aranzazu.

A limited collection of Hooks rodeo merchandise is available at the ballpark and cchooks.com/shop.

Coastal Bend Food Bank is this week’s Share2Care 50/50 Raffle beneficiary. Canned-food donations will be accepted at the main gates throughout the homestand.
