Beatles Night August 2013

The Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Tribute Band got rained out for the Beatles Night in June of 2013, even though the rest of that Beatles Night went on as planned, so they returned on August 17.  WTIX-FM's Hot Rod Glenn and JD were there with contest winner Ricky Reese, who tossed out the ceremonial first pitch.  It's captured in the video below.  And the Zephyrs beat the Iowa Cubs, 3-0!

Saturday, June 10, 2006 was Beatles Night at Zephyr Field.  The Krewe of 'TIX was there, of course, along with its Beatles Historian, author Bruce Spizer.  There were Beatles trivia questions for the crowd, with copies of Bruce's book, The Beatles Are Coming, as prizes.  Watch the video below to see a couple of the contests, and hear the Krewe of 'TIX lead the crowd in the seventh inning stretch rendition of Take Me Out to the Ball Game.  Murdering the song were Michael in the Morning, Hot Rod Glenn, Bob Walker & Sgt.
