(Saint John, NB): The Saint John Sea Dogs and Saint John Mill Rats have combined to make an exclusive offer to Sea Dogs season ticket holders.

Season ticket holders have three chances to take advantage of the opportunity:

  • At the Mill Rats table located in Sea Dogs Central set up during this weekend's games on the 19th and 20th 
  • At the season ticket holder skate following Sunday's game from 6-7 p.m.

This is an exciting opportunity for Sea Dogs fans to take in the excitement of a Mill Rats basketball game. The Sea Dogs and Mill Rats are collaborating to bring the fans of Saint John's great sports franchises together.

 

Ian McCarthy, GM of the Saint John Mill Rats is excited about this promotion. "This is a unique way for us to give back to the fans that support the two primary sports organizations in the community," says McCarthy. "A sports franchise is nothing without its fans and we would like to support those who support us. We've had a great relationship with the Sea Dogs and this will only help us grow moving forward."

 

Sea Dogs President Wayne Long is also excited about this promotion, "the end goal is to have our franchises work together and build a solid fan base for sports in Saint John, not just for the Sea Dogs or the Mill Rats. We always like to support our fans, and we believe that we should show the community that we support each other as well."
