Milwaukee Admirals News Release
Milwaukee, WI--As the calendar turns to March the Admirals begin their push for the playoffs and look to capitalize on two action-packed home games this weekend at the Bradley Center. The Lake Erie Monsters will make their first trip to Milwaukee this season Friday at 7:00 pm and the Ads will follow that up by squaring off against the Peoria Rivermen Sunday at 4:00 pm.
Friday night will be the Admirals' final bobblehead give away of the year. This time the first 5,000 fans will be able to take home a pint sized version of former Admirals goaltender Chris Mason, courtesy Kohl's and Lee Jeans. The net minder was selected from a group of former Admirals currently playing in the NHL by fan vote on the team's website this past summer.
In addition, characters from the hit Nickelodeon show Yo Gabba Gabba! will be at the game Friday to take pictures and meet fans.
The Chipotle Fiesta Deck will also be open for Friday night's contest. Fans can purchase tickets to the section for $16 and in addition to a great view of the game will receive Chipotle Burrito Buck, good for a free burrito at any local Chipotle, and a kazoo!
Sunday afternoon's game is going to the dogs. Fans are invited to take in the game with their favorite pooches by their side. Upper Level dog tickets are on sale for $2 while human seats go for $16, and $1 from each dog ticket sold will go back to the Wisconsin Human Society. In addition, on Dog Day the first 3,000 fans in attendance will receive a Bradley Corporation/Admirals Puck.
Dog owners must enter the Bradley Center through gate D, located on the Northwest corner of the building, and the first 500 dog owners will take home a doggy bag, courtesy of Pedigree.
It is also a Private Bank Family Day where you can get 4 tickets, 4 hot dogs, and 4 small Pepsi products for just $40. Afterwards, fans can lace up the skates and hit the ice for a family skate. Private Bank Family Packages must be purchased at least 24 hours in advance and to accommodate such order the Admirals office will be open on Saturday from 10:00 am until 2:00 pm.
Sunday's game is also Lions Day at the game. Members of the Wisconsin Lions will collect reading glasses and hearing aids at the doors and fans who donate these items will receive a buy one, get one free ticket offer.
