Clean Out the Storeroom Night

Clean Out the Storeroom Night
There is no greater thrill than that of the unknown, especially when it comes to Minor League Baseball promotions. The walk from the parking lot to the turnstiles often instills a sense of giddy anticipation in fans, as they contemplate the wacky and wondrous things that lurk just inside the stadium. This feeling will be even greater than usual on Thursday in Princeton, as it’s “Clean Out the Storeroom Night.” On this magical evening, fans will be able to choose from a wide array of leftover promotional items, and your guess is as good as mine when it comes to what may be available. A 1993 schedule magnet? A broken Carl Crawford bobblehead doll? Expired Taco Bell coupons? The possibilities are endless. (from Benjamin Hill, Minor League Baseball.com)

A simple, cheap, and fantastic promotion from the Princeton Devil Rays. And for every intern who has ever spent a day in the “cage” or “dungeon” (or whatever you affectionately call your storage closet) you know the goodies are endless.

While it might make sense to quietly offer your 239 left-over sponsor t-shirts to the Salvation Army, this promotion is the cure for the storage room that is over-flowing with old stuff. I think the mystery and comedy of what fans might get makes this a fun media hit as well.

This promotion has been nominated for a 2007 Gameops.com Best Game Promotion Award.
