BlueClaws Staff Members Build Own Ticket Plans

With FanFest rapidly approaching (it's on March 14th and details are here), fans are running out of time to lock-in their 2015 BlueClaws ticket package before the best seats to the best games go on sale to the general public (which happens at FanFest). 

Until FanFest, however, fans can lock in a BlueClaws Ticket Package, which comes with value-pricing and special gift (such as a BlueClaws Gift Card or a BlueClaws picnic ticket). Ticket plans start at just seven games and include complete flexibility as well (meaning that if you pick a game and something comes up later and you can't make it, then you can exchange your tickets for another game). 

Helpful Links: 7 & 15 Game Plans, Half-Season Tickets, Season Tickets. To order, click here or call 732-901-7000 option 3. 

Are you trying to build your BlueClaws Mini Plan and struggling to pick among all of the great selections from the promo schedule? We put our staff to work! We asked BlueClaws Staff Members to build their own BlueClaws 7-Game Mini Plan. Here's how they would build their Mini Plans!  

Promo Schedule: PDF Version, Website Calendar Version

Please Note: If you order a ticket package "off the race," meaning you pick all seven games as recommended by one of our staff members, you'll receive a ceremonial first pitch and a picture on the field with that staff member! Call 732-901-7000 option 3 to order today.
