Chattanooga Lookouts News Release


CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. - While the first-place Lookouts are currently on the road playing the Jacksonville Suns, Chattanooga's team will soon be back in action at AT&T Field. Wednesday, the Lookouts will embark upon a two five-game series against the Birmingham Barons and Carolina Mudcats. The 10-game homestand, which contains an off day between the two series on Monday, is jam-packed with fun for everyone.

On top of all the fun game promotions, the Lookouts are offering fans a special promotion to make cheering for their team a little easier as they make their exciting playoff push. For as long as the Lookouts are in first place, fans will receive a $1 discount on all regular adult ticket prices (lower box, upper box, general admission). All games, with the exception of August 13th, are eligible for this promotion. Fans may purchase these discounted tickets by visiting or calling the Lookouts Box Office on the day of the game in which they would like to attend. Here is the list of promotions for the homestand:

Wednesday, August 10th (7:15): 80's and Moustache Night! The Lookouts will be turning back the clock with a little twist...of the moustache. Fans will have the opportunity to dress in their favorite, most outrageous 80's era attire and receive a discounted general admission ticket for doing so. Also, in loving memory of 1B/OF Scott Van Slyke's 2010 epic moustache, fans proudly displaying a moustache will also receive a discounted general admission ticket.

The evening, which will embrace and glorify the 80's era and moustaches, will feature fans wearing 80's attire and moustaches as contestant for between-inning contests. At the end of the game, a panel of Lookouts players will determine which individual has the best 80's attire. The winner will receive a special prize.

Also, the top mustaches present will be judged at the end of the game by a panel of Lookouts player, including Scott Van Slyke (subject to him still being with the team), with the winner receiving a Lookouts moustache wax and grooming kit. Additionally, Lookouts fans in their 80's will receive a discounted general admission ticket for the game.

The discounted amount of the adult general admission ticket will be determined by the amount of fans added to the Official Lookouts Facebook Fan Page (http://www.facebook.com/Ch?attanoogaLookouts ). For every 100 new "Likes" to the page, starting with the number of 2,800, until August 9th (currently at 3,028), 50 cents will be deducted from the adult general admission ticket for the August 10th game. Only individuals wearing 80's attire, sporting a moustache, or in their 80's will receive the discount. If the Lookouts reach 3,500 "Likes" by August 9th, fans matching the aforementioned criteria will receive a free adult general admission ticket for the August 10th game!

Also on Wednesday, fans will have the opportunity to bring their dogs to AT&T Field for our Dogs on the Diamond event. Festivities will include a pre-game pooch parade, giveaways, and the ability to have your dog's photo displayed on the video board (please submit photos to pintza@lookouts.com). Fans will be able to purchase a $10 combo ticket, which includes a $4 general admission ticket plus a $6 Pooch Pass. All proceeds from the Pooch Pass will benefit the McKamey Animal Care and Adoption Center.
