Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins News Release

A FANTASTIC DEAL FROM McDONALD'S AND THE PENS

Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins hockey is a FANtastic way for a family to enjoy a night out. And now that experience can be had for an even better price, thanks to a unique partnership between the Penguins and McDonald's.

The Penguins are pleased to announce the McDonald's FANtastic Four Deal, which takes place on Saturday, December 11 vs. the Norfolk Admirals.

Fans who purchase this deal for the December 11 game vs. Norfolk will receive four tickets, four specialty Holiday baseball hats (pictured), and four McDonald's value meals.

But the best thing about the McDonald's FANtastic Four Deal is the price - it starts at just $40.00 per package!

"We realize that a night out for the entire family may not always be affordable with the current state of the economy," said Penguins CEO Jeff Barrett. "With the help of McDonald's, we have been able to put together a package which we feel is an exceptional value and accessible to just about any family."

Tickets for the McDonald's FANtastic Four Deal are extremely limited, and are available exclusively through the Penguins ticket office. To purchase yours, call the Penguins at 570-208-7367.

(McDonald's Value Meal Vouchers are redeemable at all local participating McDonald's locations. Vouchers are not redeemable inside the Mohegan Sun Arena)
