Grizzlies All-You-Can-Eat Extravaganza, Redbirds Like Fans, Waste Of An Hourd

For those of you that forgot that Memphis has a NBA team (based on attendance numbers, there is an awful lot of you), the Grizzlies are trying to lure in fans with new promotions. Per an email that was blasted out today, on Friday, April 3, you can satisfy your craving for great b-ball and great food--for one low price! For only $30 through this online-only promotion, get a Terrace Level ticket and unlimited hot dogs, nachos, popcorn, and 16 oz. Pepsi fountain drinks! If they would add all you can drink beer for another $10-15 a ticket, the game would be a guaranteed sell out.

The Memphis Redbirds will kick off the 2009 Season with a free Fan Appreciation Lunch, Wednesday March 25th from 11:30 to 1pm at AutoZone Park. This your chance to get some of your favorite ballpark snacks...free hotdogs, nachos and Coca-Cola products. This will also be a chance to hang with Rockey and, more importantly, the RedHots, win Redbirds prizes, and choose your seats for the upcoming Cardinals exhibition games and Redbirds regular season.

Many Americans tuned in to watch the President's prime time presser. What a waste of time. This will act as a formal request to ask Congress to create a stimulus package to get this hour back for all Americans. For future reference, if you are going to take time from the busy network schedules and our lives, be sure to have something important to say, be more prepared and do not dodge questions from big publications like the New York Times, Wall Street Journal and Washington Post. Are there Vegas odds on when the United States will be a truly socialist nation?
