A family of four can attend a game for just $57.50, saving 10 percent off nationwide average

DAVENPORT, Iowa. (June 9, 2014) - Affordable entertainment is a signature of the Modern Woodmen Park experience, and recently released statistics from Minor League Baseball show the cost of attending a Quad Cities River Bandits game offers some of the best value for families nationwide.

A family of four can attend a River Bandits game at Modern Woodmen Park for $57.50, which is 10 percent more affordable than the national average of $63.55 for a family to attend a Minor League Baseball game at one of the 160 ballparks in the 14 domestic-based leagues. The price includes parking, two adult tickets, two child tickets, four hot dogs, two sodas, two beers and a program or scorecard.

"Making River Bandits games not just affordable, but an unbeatable value for families is always our goal," said River Bandits owner Dave Heller. "A game at Modern Woodmen Park is one of the best deals in the country, and with our promotional lineup and ticket and concession discounts, the savings and entertainment only get better!"

The River Bandits regularly offer discounts on tickets and concessions, with a different promotion every day of the week. Among the highlights, fans can purchase $2 ticktes and concession items on Markdown Mondays, 2-for-1 tickets and kids eat free on Tuesdays, and $2 drink specials on Thirst-Day Thursdays. IHMVCU members also have 2-for-1 kids ticket specials on Wednesdays, and 2-for-1 for all tickets on Thursdays. Group outings and picnics offer even more savings over the regular admission and concession prices.
