'Pigs going 6 feet under
In what is being described as the most valuable fan giveaway in team history, the Lehigh Valley IronPigs are giving away an all-expenses-paid funeral at their Aug. 20 game. What you get, courtesy of the IronPigs and a local funeral home:
A casket, embalming or cremation, hearse, flowers, memorial service, and headstone.
Total value: $10,000.
How do you win? Submit an essay of 200 words or less toinfo@ironpigsbaseball.com that describes your "ideal funeral and why you feel you will, eventually, be deserving of the free funeral."
All essays must be received by July 31, 2013, and prospective winners have to be at the Aug. 20 game to win.
IronPigs GM Kurt Landes called it "a once-in-a-lifetime giveaway. Unquestionably, this is the most highly coveted 'out-of-the-box' promotion in IronPigs history."
