"The SCORE Opener?" You'd think 670 AM would be giving away White Sox tickets for the actual Opening Day itself, not on Thursday afternoon when the Royals wrap up their series at "The Cell"...

Loved Mulli's explanation to this "Don't ask"

So a pair of free tickets to any of the 80 home games that isn't the home opener is shit that nobody wants?

I believe they were giving away tickets to today's game, which is an afternoon game in April on the same day as the high holy days for two of this country's most prevelant religions.

It's called BAD marketing. Some shithead came up with this idea to call it the Score Opening Day thinking that it would somehow excite the masses to come to game two.

Well the Cubs have 6 BRONZE games that my tickets are $26 for. They are $60 for opening day and any big series.
Guess when 3 of those Bronze games are? right after the opener, middle of the week in April.

I think everyone knows the shitty games are in Cold April during the day during the week.
