FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE



AFLAC ANNOUNCES TICKETS FOR ALL-AMERICAN

BASEBALL CLASSIC AT PETCO PARK ARE AVAILABLE FREE OF CHARGE



Secure Tickets at PETCO Park or Online at Aflacallamerican.com



SAN DIEGO – July 24, 2009 – Allowing thousands of fans to see the nation’s best high school baseball players for free, Aflac announced today that tickets for the 2009 All-American High School Baseball Classic are available free of charge.

This year’s game—the seventh-annual Classic—will be played on Aug. 16 at 5 p.m. PDT in PETCO Park, home of the San Diego Padres, and will once again be televised live nationally on FOX Sports Net. Baseball fans may pick up their free ticket at the PETCO Park ticket office, or request tickets online at http://www.aflacallamerican.com .

“We understand the challenges many of us are facing financially right now,” said Jeff Charney, Aflac's senior vice president and chief marketing officer. “As a way to show San Diego baseball fans that we have them under our wing, Aflac is allowing everyone to attend the game for free.

The seven-year-old baseball showcase features an East versus West matchup of the nation’s top high school players. For the second consecutive year, the Aflac Classic will be played in a major league venue. The 2008 showcase was played in Los Angeles ’ historic Dodger Stadium. The 2006 and 2007 games were held at San Diego State University ’s Tony Gwynn Stadium.

The Aflac All-American Classic, however, is more than just a game. As part of its ongoing commitment to the fight against childhood cancer Aflac will make a donation to Rady Children’s Hospital in San Diego . Since 2003, the game has generated nearly $685,000 for charity.

Re: 2009 AFLAC Game FREE!!!

That'll make the attendance numbers very interesting.

Looks as though there won't be nearly as many people accumulating a sizable stash of Harper cards now.

wonder if still passing out cards

if free to get in, what stops someone from circling the park all day, entering each gate for free cards?

They've been cracking down on that. Last year, at Dodger Stadium, the cards were handed on the way OUT of the game.

They also waited till towards the end of the game to give them away.
