OK Parrotheads, after a lot of back and forth because the original contact is no longer there, we officially have reserved 25 seats in section 215 all together for this show at the Ed Smith Stadium (Orioles) on Friday, April 10th! They are $25 per ticket and in rows 10-12!
The best part is, we are tracking our own numbers and they are reserved seats. So all you have to do is confirm with me that you want to go, and then pay the club $25! This is for club members and their families! Details about the event can be found below!
