Chicago Slaughter News Release


Join us in celebrating SARGE'S BIRTHDAY on Saturday, May 18 as the Slaughter take on the Reading Express. Watch for Sarge's friends, including Skates (Chicago Wolves), Sky Guy (Chicago Sky), Coop (Schaumburg Boomers), Outlaw (Chicago Bandits) and Rusty (Gary RailCats) who will dance and play games with Sarge.

In conjunction with Sarge's birthday, we'll host Military Appreciation. Don't be late for the game as a special coin will be used for the coin flip and Future Soldiers will be sworn in all before kick off. Our fans will also have the opportunity to learn more about the life of a soldier in an Interactive Army Trailer outside our gates before the game starts. To show our support to our real life heroes there will also be a Remembrance Table on the concourse to honor POW and MIA as well as a chance for you to say thank you to a soldier overseas at our Card Making Table in the Fun Zone. The Chicago Slaughter will also be supporting Operation Care Package with a Military Drive for all men and women overseas. Be sure to bring all donated items to customer service throughout the game for a free ticket voucher for an upcoming 2012 Slaughter home game.
