How does Saturday, January 27 sound?
Cold. Baseball is far down the list.
But that's the day the Tigers will hold TigerFest, the annual offseason fan celebration at Comerica Park.
Tickets for the event go on sale here Friday, beginning at 10 a.m., or by phone at 866-66-TIGER. They cost $29 for adults and $15 for kids.
The Tigers' website says:
While the list of players and coaches attending won't be released until mid-January, the event is expected to draw plenty of Detroit's young talent and several Minor League prospects, as well as former players and current staff. Fans will have the chance to see many of them up close at photo stations, autograph tables and on stage for question-and-answer sessions, seminars and clinics.
Fans also will have an array of opportunities to win access to the Chevrolet Social Media Clubhouse, where they can interact with players and share their TigerFest experience on social-media platforms.
In addition, TigerFest has a complete schedule of kids' activities, interactive areas and behind-the-scenes looks inside Comerica Park. The Tigers' clubhouse will be open for fans to explore and will include a display of baseball artifacts. The visitors' dugout will be open for fans to visit and take photos. A guided tour will take fans into some of the Tigers executive offices, the Ernie Harwell Media Center, a luxury suite and the Champions Club.
Participants get TigerFest earmuffs.
