Last Howl For Bark at the Ballpark

Thursday May 28, 2009
This weekend, take a break from playing fetch with your dog, and take him out to the ball game instead! The Durham Bulls, in cooperation with the SPCA of Wake County, are holding a Bark at the Ballpark game this Sunday, May 31 at 5:05 p.m.

If spending an afternoon with your dog while watching the Durham Bulls take on the Buffalo Bisons at the Durham Bulls Athletic Park sounds appealing, go ahead and join the dozens of dogs (and their owners) who have already reserved seats for the game.

In order to show Fido an afternoon on the town, all you'll need is a $20 ticket for yourself and a $5 Pooch Pass for your pooch. Your ticket includes admission to a special dog-friendly section of the DBAP as well as a catered picnic buffet.

Here's where it gets a little complicated: all Pooch Passes need to be requested by the end of the day today. So, if you're interested in taking Fido out to the ballgame, you'll need to fax your Bark at the Ballpark ticket order form to the Durham Bulls box office (Fax to (919) 687-6560) by the end of the day today. No order forms will be accepted after May 28, so if you wait until game day, Fido's dreams of making it to the pros won't come true and that would just be a howling shame!
