Zombie Night
The Bisons are holding “Zombie Night,” presented by Terror Technologies on August 3 in an attempt to set the Guinness Book of World Records for the most zombies in one place. Fans are encouraged to wear costumes to the game or take advantage of several make-up stations throughout the concourse. As customary with every fridaynightbash!® in 2012, Friday’s game will also include a pre-game “Bisons Happy Hour” (5:00 p.m. – 6:30 p.m.) with 14 oz Flying Bison craft beers for only $2 as well as post game fireworks.
Boys & Girls Clubs of Buffalo
The Boys & Girls Clubs of Buffalo serves over 8,000 youths in Western New York every year. The “2 Pack a Backpack” initiative provides local children with school supplies that they could not normally afford. The supplies will make a great difference for thousands of children just in time for the new school year. Anthony Baldi & Associates, a financial advisory practice of Ameriprise Financial Services, Inc., is partnering with the Bisons yet again to promote this worthy cause.
