Billy Donovan Night in Fort Myers
2007-06-13 12:21
by Bob Timmermann

The Fort Myers Miracle (Cubs farm team) of the Florida State League is going to have a Billy Donovan night on June 20 for its game against Tampa (Yankees farm team).

Anytime during the game, fans who have second thoughts about attending the game can try to negotiate a refund of their ticket by shooting a basketball through a hoop set up for this purpose.

Team press release.

Fort Myers own Billy Donovan will throw out the first pitch and waffles will be available at the concession stand.

Man, I love a creative minor league promotion. Perhaps John Kerry and Mitt Romney can be cajoled into appearing as well.

Politics aside, wouldn't it be great to have a president named "Mitt" throw out the first pitch of 2009?

Mitt has a brother named Tagg.

Perhaps the fans can do a Magic trick and make their ticket disappear.
