The Orioles today announced plans for Fan Appreciation Weekend, which will be held Friday, September 22, through Sunday, September 24, when the Orioles host the Tampa Bay Rays for the final four-game series of the 2017 regular season. The weekend will feature exclusive giveaways, fireworks, and other opportunities for fans to enjoy unforgettable experiences at Oriole Park.
As a "thank you" to fans for their support throughout the season, the Orioles will surprise the most-spirited fans at each game with prizes, including Orioles prize packs and autographed items. Randomly-selected fans will also have the chance to enjoy unique experiences over the weekend including opportunities to take the field with the Orioles starters for the national anthem, enjoy behind the scenes tours of Oriole Park, deliver the lineup card, or throw the ceremonial first pitch. Fans will also be able to interact with Orioles players as they swap roles with Orioles employees around the ballpark prior to Saturday night's game, and pre-selected fans will participate with Orioles players in a "Shirts Off Our Backs" Jersey Ceremony presented by Snapple before the series opener on Friday night. Following Friday's game, fans can also enjoy fireworks, set to music previously selected by fans on social media. Additionally, throughout the weekend, a special Fan Appreciation filter will be available on Snapchat.
Fan Appreciation Weekend will once again include sweepstakes and opportunities for fans to win prizes via the Orioles social media accounts. Fans should follow @Orioles on Twitter for instructions on how to enter. The entire Fan Appreciation Weekend schedule includes:
