BP Announcements

There will most likely be something around the Futures Game, but it may be a little less formal.

Yes definitely. Working on DC , Kansas City, and Baltimore. The list above is just a start.

It's sometimes hard to do those kinds of formal events at All-Star games with so much different team personnel around. And for what it's worth, we tried to do an event in Minnesota last June with Terry Ryan already booked as a guest, and nobody signed up to attend. We had to actually cancel it for lack of interest. So unfortunately, we do need to take the market into consideration.

Second the request for Philly, but only if Reuben shows up to talk sabermetrics with us. :)

No, it's not on sale yet. We're still waiting for tickets to officially go on sale with the Brewers. The date is locked in. We just need all the ticket info.

It's unlikely there will be a Houston event this year. We're going to be including some new cities on the stadium tour that have yet to have an event.

We we're down to Atlanta last season. Good event. Trying to hit some different cities, but we may still come back to Georgia this year.

Crowds really differ from market to market. Generally there are no less than 50 in a group, but we've had as much as 250 in Texas for events as well.

We understand completely, but unfortunately we can't split the package. It's all integrated in the price we work out with the teams.

I want to go to Pittsburgh. I'm hoping we can garner enough interest to make it worthwhile. We need to get about 50-60 to come out. Otherwise it won't work.

We tried Cleveland a few years ago, but couldn't stir enough interest. Perhaps we can try again, but we'd need at least 50+ people to show up.

We tried to do that a few years ago, but got very little interest. It's not a concentrated fan base so it's disjointed. It's just difficult to pull off.

Last year was the first year we didn't have something official in NY in 3 years, mainly because of the All-Star game. Instead we did a free All-Star pre-game party at Foley's and a free Scouts roundtable at Bergino Clubhouse, both in Manhattan. The two years prior to that we had official events at Citi Field with the Mets. We also had a free Prospects and Pizza event at Foley's again a few weeks ago and 100 people showed up.

In addition, we went to Washington DC last year and will be there again this year.

My point is we have had a lot of events in that part of the country. We're also going to try to add a Baltimore event this season. The problem with Boston is that the group tickets are extremely difficult to get and there is little or no space to hold our typical gatherings with the front office at Fenway. So while we'd love to have something in Boston, logistically it's difficult.

I'm based in NY so believe me, I'm all for having northeast events. But there are a lot of factors that come into play, including schedule, demand, price, and available facilities when trying to to offer affordable events that will draw at least 50-75 people. But we will keep trying. Thanks

Sorry, we haven't got into too much discussion yet on the Chicago event. There are some logistical issues at the moment we need to overcome.

We can't separate the tickets from the event unfortunately, so it's all one price regardless. Sorry

We need at least 50 people to make an event work. If we're close at the time we need to give the team a final count, say around 40, we'll still go ahead with the event...even if we have to give away some of the tickets. But we weren't remotely close with the Dodgers event. If we didn't get 30 more tickets, we would have had to bear a substantial cost for not just the tickets, but the catering that is required when you book the Loge Terrace at Dodger Stadium. We've been doing these events for a few years now and take them very seriously. We don't just cancel them unless we feel it's absolutely necessary.

Probably not this year.
