The box office will be open until 5 p.m. Normal box office hours are 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday-Friday and 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Saturdays. Fans interested in season tickets can also stop by the stadium and pick out their seat for the 2013 season.
The Batavia Muckdogs, Genesee County's only professional sports franchise, have also released their 2013 slogan of Muckdogs Magic. Part of this magic is the new and improved promotional schedule featuring fireworks, giveaways, special events, and daily promotions.
The Muckdogs will again offer fans a daily menu of money-saving promotions available throughout the season.
Each week the magic begins with Muckdog Mondays sponsored by The Daily News. Every Monday home game, fans can magically get a free ticket to the game. All they need to do is purchase one General admission ticket, grab a coupon out of the Saturday edition of The Daily News; and viola! A FREE TICKET!
The magic only gets better when Tuesday's roll around with Kids' Tuesday Night Tickets courtesy of New York's 529 College Savings Program. Every Tuesday home game, the first 50 kids accompanied by an adult will receive a free General Admission ticket.
On Wednesday, the magic expands to the entire family with our Family Four Packs presented by MVP Healthcare. Fans can purchase four general admission tickets, four hot dogs, four 12 oz. sodas and a 2013 program for only $30, a savings of $14.00.
On Thursday nights, Bob Evans Restaurant helps spread the magic when they will sponsor our Kids Eat Free promotion. At every Thursday home game, the first 100 kids 12 & under will receive a voucher for a free hot dog, soda and snack item.
Friday nights will once again bring magic to the stadium as fireworks will again light up the sky after every Friday night game at Dwyer Stadium, as well as on the annual Independence Day celebration on July 3rd. Every Saturday will feature some magical pre-game concerts in the concourse. These "Rock the Ballpark" events are presented by Tim Horton's of Batavia and New Buffalo Impact with Papa and Mama Root, an oldies rock and roll tribute band, and original music recording artists. All performances begin at 6 p.m. and are weather permitting. A new addition to the lineup this year is Sudsy Saturday presented by Eastown Beverage and Redemption Center. Every Saturday home game, 12-oz. Genny Light drafts will be just $1.00 from 6:00-7:00 pm.
At Sunday home games, kids can run the bases with Homer after the game courtesy of Bob Evans Restaurant; helping to create some magical memories.
