CHARLESTON, S.C. - The Charleston RiverDogs are offering fans a chance to skip the traffic
caused by the closure of the James B. Edwards Bridge over the Wando River on I-526. Starting
on Thursday - and continuing for all weekday home games until the bridge reopens - the
RiverDogs will open their gates at precisely 5:26 p.m., 34 minutes earlier than normal.
"Opening our gates at 5:26 will allow our fans to come straight to the ballpark from work, rather
than have to go home and risk getting caught up in traffic," RiverDogs president and general
manager Dave Echols said. "We figure coming out to The Joe is a whole lot more fun than sitting
in gridlock."
Thursday is a Budweiser Thirsty Thursday, so draft beers are just $1 from the time gates open.
The RiverDogs homestand continues with Home Telecom Fireworks Friday and through the
weekend. If the bridge hasn't reopened by the time the RiverDogs return to town on Tuesday,
May 29, the 5:26 gates open time will continue.
RiverDogs single-game tickets, including options to the Riley Park Club, are now available for the 2018 campaign, the club's 25th season as the RiverDogs and their "175th season in dog years." Ticket information can be secured by contacting the box office at (843) 577-DOGS (3647) or online at www.riverdogs.com/tickets.
