Shuckers celebrate Labor Day with free tickets for new and expecting mothers

BILOXI, Miss. (WXXV)-The Shuckers are celebrating Labor Day a little differently this year.

They have announced that all new and expecting mothers will get a free ticket to the team’s game on Labor Day. The Shuckers face off against the Pensacola Blue Wahoos at 6:35 p.m. on September 1.

Mothers and mothers-to-be can get their free ticket by visiting the box office at Keesler Federal Park on Labor Day. New mothers with a child under the age of two can also get a free ticket to the game. All children under two gain free entry to all Shuckers games.

“This is what Minor League Baseball is all about,” Shuckers General Manager Hunter Reed said. “When we were coming up with ideas for our only Monday game of the season, we wanted something that would be unique, fun and bring new people to our ballpark. This combines all three and we’re excited to welcome fans to the ballpark on Labor Day!”
