Buffalo Bisons Troll Patriots, Will Host Keep Brady Suspended Night
One day after the Boston Red Sox's Triple-A affiliate revealed its plans to host Free [Tom] Brady Friday, a minor league team in Buffalo has announced it will counter that promotion with one of its own.
The Buffalo Bisons will host Keep Brady Suspended Night.
For their June 11 doubleheader, the Toronto Blue Jays' Triple-A affiliate will troll Brady and the New England Patriots by celebrating the quarterback's four-game suspension. Because when you're in Buffalo Bills country, there's nothing better than taking shots at the Patriots.
The highlights, per MiLB.com:
""
- Buy-one, get-one-free tickets to anyone that brings a properly inflated football to be donated to area youth football programs.
- Accepting un-destroyed cellphone donations for Cell Phones for Soldiers charity.
- A 12.5 percent discount in the Bisons' gift shop for anyone that brings a Tom Brady jersey/T-shirt to add to the postgame fireworks display. Help us remind Tom of the minimum amount of inflation for footballs, for you know...once he gets to play again.
- Scoreboard videos featuring some of sports' greatest cheaters, with special video tribute to Patriots coach Bill Belichick.
- If you are named "Tom" or "Brady," you will be allowed entrance into Coca-Cola Field for Keep Brady Suspended Night but will not be allowed to watch the first four innings of Game 1 of the doubleheader. Please, no appeals.
Update: Sunday, June 12
In case you were wondering, Keep Brady Suspended Night was a big hit:
---End of Update---
No word on if Bills head coach Rex Ryan will be in attendance. This seems like it would be right up his alley.
Minor league baseball teams love to have fun with topical events. If there's a chance the promotion can fill seats, teams are willing to take chances. And thus, we get this fantastic back-and-forth.
