University of Kentucky men's basketball coach John Calipari and the Lexington Legends will team up for a special fund-raising event at Applebee's Park Saturday, May 8.
Calipari will sign the commemorative Maker's Mark bottles featuring his likeness (empty bottles only) from 4:30 - 6:30 p.m. This will be the last opportunity for fans to have their empty bottles signed.
The coach will then take the mound to deliver a ceremonial first pitch before the Legends play Greensboro in a 7:05 p.m. game.
There will be 750 empty bottles available for sale at 4 p.m. for $35 each, with all proceeds going to the Calipari Foundation for Children and Ivy Walls Charitable Foundation. The Legends will provide a free ticket to that night's game for every bottle purchased at Applebee's Park.
"We are very excited to partner with Coach Cal and help support the Calipari Foundation for Children," said Legends General Manager Andy Shea. "This is a great opportunity for all parties involved, especially our fans."
