IRONPIGS PLACE 18-GAME TICKET PLANS ON SALE TO PUBLIC

(Allentown, PA) -- The Lehigh Valley IronPigs have officially announced that 18-Game Ticket Plans are now available for purchase. This special ticket plan provides an alternative option to Season Tickets (72 games), which went on sale March 29.

“As evidenced by Season Ticket sales, the support from both the business community and the fans has been overwhelming,” said IronPigs General Manager Kurt Landes. “But we also understand that family and employment obligations preclude many fans from attending all of our home games; so we’ve constructed our 18-Game Plans to include many of the best amenities of owning season tickets.”

The 18-Game Ticket Plans consist of four predetermined packages of 18 games, which feature a variety of game dates, opposing teams and special promotions. Benefits include the same guaranteed seats for each game in the package as well as the option to purchase additional single-game tickets and potential IronPigs playoff tickets prior to the general public. In addition, 18-Game Ticket Plan holders will receive exclusive ticket offers to select Phillies home games starting with the 2008 season.

Although the actual dates for each of the four packages cannot be determined until after the 2008 International League schedule is set, priority for picking packages and seat location will be based on the date of purchase.

The price for each 18-Game Ticket Plan is $162.00. Plans can be purchased by going online to www.ironpigsbaseball.com/tickets/miniplans or by calling the IronPigs at (610) 435-3001. Season Tickets remain available for purchase at www.ironpigsbaseball.com/tickets/seasontickets.

The opposing teams that will play against the IronPigs are the Buffalo Bisons, Charlotte Knights, Columbus Clippers, Durham Bulls, Indianapolis Indians, Louisville Bats, Norfolk Tides, Pawtucket Red Sox, Richmond Braves, Rochester Red Wings, Scranton/Wilkes-Barre Yankees, Syracuse Chiefs and Toledo Mud Hens. Schedule and special promotions have yet to be determined.
