Lakeland Loggerheads News Release


LAKELAND, Fla. – The Lakeland and Orlando rivalry has proven to be all it was billed up to be at the beginning of the season. The "I-4 War" has been very entertaining with closely contested games, hard hits, overtime game winners, shootout victories, and all the while the two team's fans going at each other in the stands.

On Saturday, January 30th, the Loggerheads plan to "Bite the Seals" in a special promotion designed to play on this bitter rivalry.

There will be a "Seal Eating Contest" where fans will try and eat the most cake (decorated like an Orlando Seal of course) without using their hands, "Bobbing for Seals", "Seal Bowling", a "Seal Toss", and a "Bite the Seals" sign and spirit contest where fans are encouraged to make, bring and display any signs or props showing which team has the best fans in the WHA2.

Also, Snapper, the Loggerheads newly introduced mascot, and Sealvester will go head-to-head in a special "Mascot Puck Handling Race". And, as if that wasn't enough, the Loggerettes Dance Team and the Seals "Hotties Girls" will battle it out in the stands to see just who's fans have the most team spirit.

Fans from both teams are encouraged to go all out to support their team. Don't let your rival get the best of you!!

Don't forget...its more fun in groups!!! Bring your group to a Loggerheads game and get special ticket pricing $2 off the regular box office prices. Call the Loggerheads Group Sales office at 863-834-7814 for more information or to purchase your tickets today.

The Loggerheads face off with the Alabama Slammers, Jacksonville Barracudas, Orlando Seals, Miami Manatees and the Macon Trax in the WHA2's inaugural season. All games will be broadcast on www.irn.fm.
