Probably not this year. We're trying for San Francisco instead.

Will there be an All Star game edition again this year?

That is the plan...especially since many of us are based in New York

I assume this list is provisional? More to come?

Yep, R.A., there are quite a few more events to come once the dates are sorted out.

Looking forward to the Seattle event. If any BP staff need help with hotel/restaurant stuff, I work for a national chain that has three locations in downtown Seattle and would be happy to make a few calls/emails to get you guys a good place to stay! It's the least I could do after all the endless content I've gotten from BP.

At Miller Park, you're guaranteed a game and 37,000 people who will listen to anything after tailgating for three hours pregame...

Just a look ahead for those asking...in addition to those already on sale, we will be planning events for Minnesota, San Diego, Baltimore, Washington, Kansas City, San Francisco, and New York (most likely around the All-Star game). So keep an eye out for announcements!

So no Toronto, eh?

Not sure if you saw the Toronto announcement a few weeks ago. We tried, but they declined. Since we now have a friend in the Toronto front office, we're going to try again :)

Mar 17, 2013 13:31 PM

R.A.Wagman

I heard (twitter) that a certain one-time BP contributor joined the Blue Jays front office. Did not see any other announcement.

But thanks for the update.

I asked the Google, but was unable to find out which staffer is moving to Toronto--who's the new employee?

And congratulations to him or her!

Ha...that was good. It's Dan Evans

I'm pretty pissed that the Jays front office declined this. Toronto has one of the largest online presences and there is strong demand for a BP event here. Rest assured, we appreciate your continued efforts to make an event happen here and we won't take this lying down.

We're still trying. Haven't given up yet. Just waiting for some things to come down a bit with the draft on the horizon.

Arg. Fenway?

Joe Hamrahi

BP staff

We've tried Fenway, but getting affordable group tickets is next to impossible and we'd most likely have to host the event in a location outside of Fenway.

Apr 07, 2013 14:37 PM

oloughla

Fair enough. In that case, there are a ton of bars near Fenway that would probably work. Landsdowne Street, Kenmore Square, etc.

Any chance of coming to Tampa?

We did the last two years, but the turnout was very poor. It's hard to run the event when you can't get enough people to attend.

Apr 21, 2013 20:45 PM

John Lowe

I am shocked that you have trouble getting baseball fans to go to an event in Tampa.
