This week was pretty tedious to say the least. In my office day, I spent five hours opening our pocket schedules, putting a voucher for a free game inside, and using a rubber band to put them all together. Nothing more than classic intern work, but hey someone has to do it.
I worked two game days this week; the first day I was in charge of the on-field promotions. This day included the Price Rite Lucky Ticket Row, the potato sack race, the Dunkin' Donuts Race, and the God Bless America Singer. For the second game I was in the merchandise shop working the basketball game they have set up in the stadium called Pop-A-Shot. The Rock Cats invested in inflatable basketball hoops and had a deal; for $3, you would get 5 chances to make a basket, and depending on how many you make determines the prize you receive. The prizes ranged from a Rock Cats Notepad to an Official Rock Cats hat. The few times I worked the pop-a-shot there weren’t many people interested in participating. I would even negotiate deals and let them shoot a basket for free. I believe this lack of participation was due to the fact that there was no notice that there were prizes involved in the game. I mentioned this to Ben (the manager of the merchandise shop), and he just waved it off.
