Pokemon are going to the ballgame.
The Gwinnett Braves are hosting 'Pokemon Go' Night during their Tuesday game, offering special festivities — and prizes — to players of the now-ubiquitous smartphone game. According to the team's website:
"Once gates open at 6:00 p.m., fans can pick up a BINGO-style card from the Marketing Kiosk for no additional charge. Each card will include squares with Pokemon characters, plus official rules for the game. Prizes will be given out to everyone that completes their card, with the top prize (a $25 iTunes Gift Card) going to the first person to turn in a completed card."
There is a "one-player-per-card, one-card-per-person" limit, officials said. Pokemon must be caught within the stadium gates but "fans will not be allowed to catch Pokemon on the field of play."
The baseball game begins at 7:05 p.m. Coolray Field is located at 2500 Buford Drive in Lawrenceville. Tickets are available here or at the stadium box office.
