It's time for Spring Training baseball here in Southwest Florida. A special welcome back to the Charlotte Sports Park goes to the Rays. They were unable to use the stadium in Port Charlotte last year due to hurricane damage and had to spend the spring in Orlando. The Red Sox and the Twins have also reported to their stadiums in Fort Myers. Games are scheduled to start this weekend and Southwest Florida Hooters has a special deal for the fans looking for some post game refreshment.
Guests at Hooters can receive a free beer or curly fry at their local Hooters restaurant by showing their spring training game day ticket stub within 24 hours after the first pitch. The rules that come with that are a minimum $5 purchase, and that you need to be a t least 21. Hooters is sponsoring the Minnesota Twins in Fort Myers, Boston Red Sox in Fort Myers, Baltimore Orioles in Sarasota and Pittsburgh Pirates in Bradenton. Side note - last year, Livvy Dunne spent some time in Bradenton for the Pirates games. She was dating Pirates pitcher Paul Skenes and was seen around town.
“We look forward to Spring Training and enjoy having our restaurants be a part of this tradition in our area for many years. In addition to the promotions at the Hooters restaurant locations, we look forward to having our team including Hooters Girls, Managers and Hootie be a part of several game day activations,” said LTP Management Director of Marketing Kristi Quarles.
