The Carlos Ruiz Chest Protector Backpack Giveaway Is Fantastic

If you happen to have tickets for the August 30th game against the Braves AND you’re 14 & under, this glorious Carlos Ruiz Catcher’s Backpack giveaway could be all yours, my friend:

Badass, right? If it weren’t for those Mariners hosting an ‘I Can Haz Cheezburger’ night, this would easily be the greatest promotion of the year. Looks like I’ll be dragging meech’s two & three to the game so my 8-year old can get one and I can steal the other from my 7-month old when he’s not looking. Then I’ll tell him I lost it or something. (7-month olds aren’t too bright, ya know.)
It’s about damn time they had a promotion for Chooch.

I asked my husband if we could name our daughter Choochie Fuqua but he said no. He even said no to just Fuqua as a middle name. What a dick.
July 13th, 2009 at 3:22 pm
What an asshole! Fuqua should be the most common middle name in 2009. At least in the Delaware Valley.
July 13th, 2009 at 3:28 pm
Damn, I knew I should had kids.
July 13th, 2009 at 3:50 pm
Who the hell turns down Fuqua as a middle name for their kid right now? What an ass!

Chooch’s chest protector is almost as good as A-Rod night, which is an inflatable chest with his teammate given nickname “bitch-tits” stitched across the front

@obligatory fist-pump
LOL!

Anyone get tickets to the JC Romero Choke a Bitch night?
July 13th, 2009 at 4:30 pm
@Gonzo… ooh, is that anything like “Brett Myers Smack a Bitch Night”?
July 13th, 2009 at 4:30 pm
That’s awesome. Chooch doesn’t get the recognition he deserves. I love that guy.
July 13th, 2009 at 4:36 pm
there needs to be a push-button on that thing that says things like “esliderrr” “coorvebawl”
July 13th, 2009 at 4:50 pm
@Gonzo
They need a J.C. Romero “The Original Whizzinator” night.

Looking at this makes me want to kidnap a child just so I can get one.
July 13th, 2009 at 5:05 pm
No worries… parents usually have to drag their kids out of the stadium by the 7th inning so there’s always a few extra under 14 giveaways laying under the seats by the end of the game.
July 13th, 2009 at 5:10 pm
fyi, I got 3 SRO’s for this game last night so I’m sure tickets won’t last much longer. I checked stub hub for tickets and wound up filing rape charges against them.

It needs a special pocket to hold ice cream cones.

For once pulling out works against my favor
July 13th, 2009 at 5:48 pm
Damn, I want one.
July 13th, 2009 at 6:43 pm
Whatever you do, don’t go around offering kids $10 for one. Most little bastards will stand there and try to haggle and ask for $75 or some other ridiculous amount. Not that I know from a previous bobblehead giveaway or anything.
July 13th, 2009 at 7:02 pm
If ya see a kid wearing one, throw a heater at his backpack. When the kid falls over and screams “that creepy man is stealing my backpack”, just tell ‘em “Chooch woulda blocked that ball in the dirt; Chooch wouldn’t have fallen down”.
The backpack is rightfully yours.
July 13th, 2009 at 7:02 pm
I’m 27, but still get the 14 and under giveaways. I got the towel the other night and thought, “Why the hell did I just scam an old lady into thinking I was 14 for this?!”
July 13th, 2009 at 10:01 pm
YES!!! I knew there was a reason I had that second kid. I might have to leave the husband home and borrow a third kid for the day…a slow-running, not-so-bright one. Then I can sell the third backpack for $75 or some other ridiculous amount. I can throw in an unopened pack of JRoll McDonald’s wristbands.

Im looking forward to the Cole Hamels “Dog In Backpack Night” giveaway myself.
July 14th, 2009 at 10:35 am
they sometimes still hand me the 14 & under giveaway (yes, i got the batting helmet this year).
unfortunately, i’ll be seeing uh… david cook sing that night.

How Do You Spell Retard- Thanks for posting NSFW! I almost opened that link on my work computer and I can just imagine my coworkers response, oh my!
Anyways, thanks for the post. That’s probably the best giveaway I’ve seen yet! I even did a blog on it- http://www.promotional-bags-blog.com
