We go to Major League Baseball games for the excitement. We go to games because our fandom won't let us sit at home.
We also go to games for the free stuff.
Chat Sports has scanned the interwebs for the most awesome and/or odd giveaways of the 2015 MLB season, and this is the cream of the crop. Here's our list of The 7 Best (Or Strangest) Major League Baseball Promotions For 2015.
BEST
Milwaukee Brewers -- Harry Doyle Bobblehead (July 21st)
Oh my god, oh my god, oh my GOD. Fans who make the trek to Miller Park for Major League night will be treated with a talking bobblehead of Brewers play-by-play man Bob Uecker's iconic character, Harry Doyle. Get ready to annoy your significant other for days on end with such classic lines as "This guy threw at his own kid in a father-son game" and "Juuuuuust a bit outside."
Pittsburgh Pirates -- Bill Mazeroski Replica Statue (August 26)
The first 20,000 fans to PNC Park on this late-August night will get a gorgeous replica statue of Bill Mazeroski in the midst of his jubliance following his iconic World-Series winning walkoff bomb in 1960. Brilliant promo work here.
Colorado Rockies - Mullet Hat (May 24)
When the Rockies play host to the Giants on May 24th, there will be 10,000 fans cheering them on while sporting a gloriously silly Rockies cap/mullet hybrid. If Coors Field's PA announcer doesn't cue up Whitesnake and Quiet Riot in rotation all night, it'll be a travesty of baseball justice.
Cincinnati Reds - Bark In The Park (various)
The Reds are hosting four dog-friendly nights at Great American Ballpark this season: April 27, May 26, August 26, September 24. Bringing man's best friend to a ball game is the perfect way to spend a summer night -- provided you're not the one picking up all the poop.
STRANGEST
Miami Marlins - Lawyer Appreciation Night (April 7)
We're not sure when and why this came about, but we're placing the over/under for lawsuits coming out of this night at Marlins Park right at 100.5.
Place your bets now.
Cleveland Indians - Weather Education Day (May 27)
What?
Really?!?
No time like a baseball game to teach students valuable information about the weather. Right? Bueller? BUELLER?
New York Mets - Fedora Giveaway Night (May 6)
M'lady.
