Dollar Dog Night Schedule Released!
Posted by BMT on January 19th, 2010
The Phillies have released their promotional schedule for the upcoming season. The first dollar dog night will be May 3 against the Cardinals (it’s also Asian Pacific Celebration). Subsequent DDNs will be May 17 against the Pirates, June 7 against the Padres, July 5 against the Braves, September 6 against the Marlins and September 20 against the Braves.
Interestingly enough, Schedule Magnet Day will be September 26 against the Mets. That seems like a promotion that should take place earlier in the season than the last week. Other awesome giveaways are the Ryan Howard collectible tin on April 17 against the Marlins and IBEW Local 98 t-shirt day on September 5 against the Brewers.
It may seem hypocritical that we’re promoting hot dog eating and the Phillies on the same day as we celebrate Charlie Manuel’s weight loss but man, $1 for a full meal is hard to pass up.

I, for one, love useless free magnets. Finding cool stickers is easy; finding cool magnets is expensive and difficult. Solution: make your own magnets by applying stickers to magnets you don’t want. See you on September 26th!

In the interest of full disclosure, the magnets they’re handing out on Sep. 26 have the 2011 schedule printed on them. That means people can go to the game, get the magnet and then throw it in their junk drawers for the next 5 months. Solution: give-out magnets for the current season the first week of said season. Pure Genius!

magnets for this season were mailed to season ticket holders in late November…..got yearly calender today in the mail….magnets as a give away for for 2010 would be a waste of marketing…the single ticket sales would already be done…and with 50 plus sellouts last year they don’t need to promote this season with this season with a giveaway of the current schedule….

Hey I just wanted to let you know, I actually like the writing on your web site. But I am using Firefox on a machine running version 9.04 of Xubuntu and the design aren’t quite right. Not a important deal, I can still fundamentally read the articles and explore for info, but just wanted to inform you about that. The navigation bar is kind of difficult to use with the config I’m running. Keep up the great work!
