A SALUTE TO DUCK TAPE NIGHT PRESENTED BY DUCK-BRAND DUCT TAPE
Created in the 1940s, duct tape quickly became an indispensable all-purpose tool, helping American soldiers in a variety of ways during World War II thanks to the tape's resistance to water. Sixty years later, although duct tape can be found in nearly every home throughout the country, it's never really gotten the respect it deserves--- until now. Duck-Brand Duct Tape will present a special night dedicated to one of the world's most utilized adhesives on Thursday, May 12 at Isotopes Park. Not only will the first 2,500 fans receive their very own roll of Duck Tape and a special Duck Bill noisemaker upon leaving the park, they will also be eligible to compete in a Duck Tape fashion show. Since Duct Tape now comes in a variety of colors other than traditional silver, fans will be able to dress themselves in multi-colored tape garments on the Isotopes Park concourse and compete for âTopes merchandise in a one-of-a-kind Duck Tape fashion show.! Be sure to come out and not only enjoy the fun, but also to give America's favorite tape the long-overdue tribute it deserves.
BEANIE BEARS COURTESY BANK OF THE WEST
Beanie Bears make their long awaited and highly anticipated return to Isotopes Park thanks to Bank of the West on Friday, May 13. The first 2,500 kids age 14 and under will receive a special Isotopes Beanie Bear to take home and add to their collection.
