With Bobblections launched and the country in the midst of a presidential election, the New Hampshire Fisher Cats (Class AA; Eastern League) are launching their own election–for a Ballpark President.
Starting today, fans can nominate themselves, a friend, or a family member for the role of Fisher Cats Ballpark President.
For one mutually agreed upon game during the 2021 season, the Ballpark President will have executive authority over the Fisher Cats entertainment experience. That means veto power on music and on-field games, VIP access behind the scenes of the stadium, a ceremonial first pitch, a presidential radio interview, and of course, a full security detail led by Fisher Cats mascot Fungo.
“If there’s one thing we can all agree to vote for, it’s the safe return of Fisher Cats baseball in 2021,” said General Manager Jim Flavin. “We can’t wait to see the team back on the field next season, and to continue providing our fans with memorable experiences at the ballpark. And I’ll say this: whoever wins this election is in for a night they’ll never forget.”
To avoid overworking the Electoral College, the Fisher Cats will execute an independent arbitrary election, and select the Ballpark President in a random drawing at Delta Dental Stadium.
