Last week a friend asked if I knew when the PBS 39 documentary on the IronPigs would be released. Tonight I got an answer. When I asked for a description of how the movie turned out I was told this:
“It’s a love story. The love shared between the team and the fans”
You saw the film crews all over Coca Cola Park last season. Interviewing fans, catching the action on and off the field and following our beloved players into the finals. Their hard work will culminate in a movie release party… or so the word on the street say it will.
What I got is that the day before Opening Day (April 5th) and the day after the exhibition (April 3rd in Reading) that the IronPigs will open the gates to The Coke for an IronPig documentary viewing party. There is also supposed to be an opportunity to watch the team work out at the park on this day as well.
Granted, this probably won’t be a free, thank you for being a loyal customer, day. Expect a nominal charge that will be put towards IronPig’s Charities. They help kids in the community so who could complain about that? (Yeah, I know there are some out there but don’t complain here) I am an avid supporter of and absolutely love IronPig’s charities for what they do. That aside, I’d guess around $5.
Again, this hasn’t been confirmed but I believe the person who told me.
One thing to keep an eye on until April 4th is the PBS 39 website. We can expect a teaser/preview segment to be posted there soon. Another good place to watch for announcements is the PBS 39 Facebook page.
I have to say I enjoy PBS programming a lot. It should be supported as well.
Many thanks goes out to those involved in the making of this documentary for their hard work and tireless efforts to document how fans can support a local team.
OinK!
