Phillies SGA Preview: Beach Towel
2014 Beach Towel SGA via Phillies.com
Children attending tonight's game against the Washington Nationals will receive a Phillie Phanatic beach towel. Produced in varying degrees of quality, the beach towel promotion has been an annual favorite for kids across the Delaware Valley since the 1980s.
This year's towel features the Phanatic flying a Phillies kite at the Shore, with a bright red border and script team logo centered at the top. As far as free beach towels go it seemed pretty good to me - but, I wanted to check with an expert. I approached my son with the idea of going to the game earlier this week. You'll get a beach towel! I told him. The reaction was lukewarm until I showed him the picture of it, then "YES! I want it!" spilled out of him. So there you go - it must be a good design...
I haven't been eligible to receive one of these SGAs in two decades, so it's pretty much been an afterthought. To help refresh my memory, I did a quick eBay search and found a few oldies. Hope you enjoy looking at them as much as I did...
