February 3, 2004 - Central Hockey League (CHL)
Indianapolis Ice News Release
INDIANAPOLIS - Hey Mon, Fun Is Good! Dig out your floral print shirts, board shorts and flip-flops and join the Indianapolis Ice this Saturday night at the Pepsi Coliseum for Island Party 2K4 when the Ice face-offs with division rival Fort Worth at 7:05 p.m.
The Ice, in conjunction with the Hoosier Lottery, SuperClubs Resorts and Red Stripe beer will do its best to help wash away the winter blues when the team converts the Pepsi Coliseum into Indiana's Largest Indoor Beach complete with over 20 tons of sand.
In addition to a special pre-game party beginning at 6:00 p.m. the night will feature authentic Jamaican entertainers direct from SuperClubs Resorts including a limbo dancer and contest, high energy Jamaican dancers, a Rastafarian fire-eater, steel drums as well as a live pre and post-game show by the reggae band, The Flex Crew. Fans are encouraged to wear their favorite beach apparel and tropical attire with prizes for the best dressed.
"This is our chance to bring a little bit of 'Margaritaville' to the Heartland", said Ice General Manager, Larry Linde. "It's 20 degrees and a hockey games on...who wouldn't want to be on a beach in Jamaica right now?" He added, "Not everyone can escape to the beach so we figured we'd bring the beach to the people. Come Monday, it'll be all right."
All fans that bring one non-winning $7 Island Poker scratch-off ticket to the box office on game night will receive discounts on game tickets ($4 off a $15 ticket or $3 off a $10 ticket). Fans can then use the same Island Poker ticket to enter to win a complete Caribbean Vacation.
Tickets for all home games can be purchased at all Ticketmaster locations including select Marsh Supermarkets, Karma Records, select L.S. Ayres and the Indiana State Fairgrounds and Conseco Fieldhouse box offices, or by calling 239-5151 or online at ticketmaster.com.
