Milwaukee Admirals News Release
Milwaukee, WI - The West Division Champion Milwaukee Admirals have a heroes weekend on tap with home games on Friday night and Sunday afternoon at the Bradley Center, highlighted by special fire and police styled jerseys that will be auctioned off with the proceeds benefitting the Admirals Power Play Foundation.
The action begins tomorrow at 7:00 pm against the Lake Erie Monsters. The first 5,000 fans to the game will take home a black Admirals t-shirt, courtesy of Jockey. After a road game in Rockford tomorrow night, the Ads return to the BC to play host to the hated, but certainly not feared, Chicago Wolves on Sunday at 5:00 pm. The first 5,000 fans will get a bobblehead of Admirals great Fred Berry, courtesy of Potawatomi Bingo Casino.
Friday is also a Chipotle Fiesta Deck night. For just $16 fans receive a Chipotle Burrito Buck, which is good for a free burrito at any Chipotle location, a ticket for the game in section 221, and a kazoo. The Fiesta Deck is sold out for Friday's game, but there are still tickets available for next Friday, April 10th, the last Fiesta Deck of the season.
In addition, the Admirals and the Blood Center of Wisconsin will host their second annual Blood Drive on Sunday from 9:00 am until 2:00 pm in the East Atrium of the Bradley Center. Any person who donates blood will receive a pair of tickets to a 2009-10 Admirals game. Sunday will also be the "Battle of the Badges" hockey game which pits local police versus local firemen at 12:30. The Battle for the Badges is free with a ticket to the Admirals game and $5 from each Admiral ticket sold by the Battle of the Badges will be donated to the MACC Fund.
Sunday's contest is also the final Foley & Lardner Family Day and Skate where fans can get four tickets, four sodas, and four hot dogs for just $40 and then after the game anyone who brings their skates can take a lap on the Bradley Center ice. Foley and Lardner Family Packages must be ordered 24 hours in advance.
Fans can buy tickets, by calling Ticketmaster at (800) 745-3000 or online at www.ticketmaster.com. Groups of ten or more people receive a minimum of $2 off of each ticket. For more information or to order group tickets call the Admirals office at (414) 227-0550.
