This Is The Cheapest Summer Activity In Clearwater
Looking for some ways to enjoy summer without breaking the bank? A trip to a theme park could cost you hundreds of dollars, concerts have become so expensive, and even camping or beach days can add up. Well this activity in Clearwater will cost you less than $10 and it’s happening all summer long.
Those who grew up in the Tampa Bay area know how fun and affordable minor league baseball games can be. And one of my favorite summer past times is $1 Tuesdays at the Clearwater Thresher’s games.
Every Tuesday home game is $1 Tuesdays. This fan favorite special includes $1 admission tickets, $1 hot dogs, 16 oz. fountain sodas, 12 oz. domestic drafts (21+), peanuts, popcorn, chips, and ice cream sandwiches.
Advice Before Going To $1 Tuesdays Clearwater Threshers Games:
If you plan to take advantage of this cheap activity this summer then you should know a few things.
- Get there early! Gates open at 5:30 with first pitch at 6:30. If you don’t get there before the first inning then you’re likely to spend 3-4 innings just waiting in line for $1 hot dogs.
- You can’t buy the $1 tickets online, they are only available at the box office. Another reason to get there early.
- Parking for Bay Care Ball Park is $5 (yes, more expensive than the ticket). And the parking lot and overflow lots fill up FAST! So take our word when we say get there EARLY!
- Bring an umbrella or poncho in case it rains, which is pretty often in the summertime in Florida.
The Clearwater Threshers also run other great promotions throughout the week. On Thursdays they have Taps and Tacos special that features local breweries on tap. Thursday’s is also half-price beverages at the Frenchy’s Tiki Pavilion. And select Friday’s they are hosting “Beach Dog Fridays”, where you can bring your pup to the game, each dog ticket benefits a local pet charity!
