Giants to host Lennay Kekua Night
On April 12, the organization will host Lennay Kekua Night at Municipal Stadium. Items such as catfish will be featured on the Turkey Mike's BBQ menu and fans who purchase a game ticket can bring their imaginary or real significant other to the game for free. A meet-and-greet will take place prior to the game for all couples to introduce their significant others to their parents, to avoid any confusion about the existence of a boyfriend or girlfriend.
Two free future game tickets will be given to all fans who dress like Manti Te'o and to all Stanford University students because they may know or be Te'o's girlfriend. During the game, promotions will include individuals and their imaginary significant others competing to win great prizes.
Despite the fun and wacky nature of this night, the San Jose Giants recognize the serious nature of a person being diagnosed with a deadly disease such as leukemia or lymphoma. As a result, the organization will host an auction on April 12 and make a donation to The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society®.
The Giants begin their 2013 season on April 4 at Visalia, with the home opener set for April 11 against the Rawhide. The Opening Night extravaganza will include a postgame fireworks show, 2013 magnet schedule giveaway and more.
The Giants also have home games on Mother's Day (May 12), Memorial Day (May 27), Independence Day (July 4) and Labor Day (Sept. 2). On June 18, for the first time ever, Municipal Stadium will host the California-Carolina League All-Star Game.
Season tickets are available for purchase online at sjgiants.com, over the phone at (408) 297-1435 and in person at the Municipal Stadium box office, Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.
