Purina Woof Wednesday returns August 15!
All Baseball Loving Dogs are invited to watch the game they love with their best friend this Wednesday at Hammons Field for Purina Woof Wednesday. One owner ticket=free entry for your Very Good Boy/Girl! Fans bringing their dogs to the game are asked to enter at Gate 3.
The Cardinals will provide kiddie pools for your dogs to drink out of throughout the ballpark. Dogs are encouraged to enjoy the game from the outfield grass/General Admission areas due to most dogs not being good at the intricacies of human bathrooms. Dogs are permitted in the seating bowl if that is where your tickets are located, however, if a fan in your section complains then the ushers will ask you to move to another seating area or General Admission.
Wednesday is also National Relaxation Day, which is the perfect excuse to spend a Wednesday night at the ballpark.
First pitch is 6:30pm. Gates open at 5:30pm.
Book a night out with your dog!
