Frederick Keys News Release
Frederick, MD (August 24, 2011) - A day after being shaken by an earthquake that reached 5.9 on the scales, the Keys are shaking their prices for Wednesday night's game at 7pm. All fans that come to the box office can buy a general admission ticket for just $5.90. This price represents the quakes effect on the Keys ticket prices. These discounted tickets will go on sale at 11am Wednesday morning.
Everyone on the East coast yesterday was just going about their business at work, day camp or the beach. At approximately 1:51pm, an earthquake shook cities from North Carolina all the way up to Rhode Island, measuring 5.9 on the scales. Social media outlets exploded with reaction as buildings were evacuated and after school events were postponed.
The Frederick Keys front office was taken for a ride for a few moments around 2pm, resulting in many staff members panicking to find out what happened. After hours of research from Keyote and Frank Key, it was determined that the quake was indeed the result of the entire eastern seaboard shaking their keys.
If you didn't feel an aftershock from Tuesday's earth tremor but still survived the quake, come to the Keys game on Wednesday night at 7pm to witness a slice in ticket price. General admission tickets are just $5.90!
