LET'S GET THIS SUMMER STARTED!!
The Bisons are sick of the bad weather. And now that warmer days are finally here, the team is ready to jam-pack an entire summer of events into the final month of the season. As the team returns home for a nine-game homestand starting Monday, August 10, they have added several NEW EVENTS to a schedule already filled with great promotions.

During this next homestand, the Bisons have added a Snow Park Ticket Giveaway (Monday, August 10), a FREE Kids Day (Thursday, August 13) a Fireworks Show (Saturday, August 15) and a $10,000 Grand Slam Giveaway (Monday, August 17).

This is on top of a stretch of events that include Chrystal Beach Replica Giveaway (Wednesday, August 12), presented by Hamburg Overhead Door & Liftmaster, a fridaynightbash!® (August 14), presented by Seneca Gaming Corporation, Peter Pan Cap Giveaway (Saturday, August 15) and an appearance by SpongeBob SquarePants (Sunday, August 16).

The Snow Park Ticket Giveaway will go to the first 1,000 fans in attendance for the team's doubleheader (Game 1 - 5:35 p.m.) on August 10 against the Rochester Red Wings. On Thursday, August 13, fans can receive a FREE Kids Ticket (12 & under) with each adult ticket purchased at the Coca-Cola Field Box Office (subject to availability).
