Arizona Rattlers News Release


(PHOENIX, AZ - APRIL 7, 2010) - For the first time in professional sports history, a team will give away every seat in the house to its loyal fans. The Arizona Rattlers have decided to make all 17,000 plus tickets at US Airways Center available for free for its home opener against the Chicago Rush on Friday, April 16th.

This is the first time in professional sports history a team is voluntarily giving away every ticket to a regular season game... and with no strings attached.

The Arizona Rattlers didn't forget about its season ticket holders either. Fans who have already purchased season tickets will receive a credit towards their account and will also get the first opportunity at acquiring additional free tickets.

The free tickets are made possible through the extraordinary support of XanGo, Casino Arizona, and Napa Auto Parts. Tickets will be available on Saturday, April 10th from 11am - 5pm and distributed at Casino Arizona and 15 selected Napa Auto Parts stores on a first come, first serve basis. For distribution locations near you go to www.azrattlers.com . Limit four tickets per person.

"The Rattlers and our sponsors understand that times are tough for just about everyone. We wanted to do something special for the people of Arizona without asking for anything in return," said Danny White, Team President. "The Arizona Rattlers care about the community and are doing this as a way to do more than simply give it lip service. We truly appreciate the generous support of our primary sponsors XanGo, Casino Arizona, and Napa Auto Parts for helping us make this event a reality!"

Both season tickets and single game tickets for other home games are available online at www.azrattlers.com or by calling the Arizona Rattlers at (602) 379-2333.
