San Francisco Giants planning 'Metallica Night' for May series with Dodgers

The San Francisco Giants have teamed up with one of the greatest rock bands of all time for "Metallica Night" on May 3, 2013, as part of a game with rival Los Angeles Dodgers. Officially announced late on Thursday, Feb. 7, 2013, the Giants let it be known that the special event will incorporate the love of rock music and baseball.

Metallica is going to throw out the first pitch and sing the national anthem as well. Fans attending the event will get a special Giants/Metallica baseball cap, and there will be in-game Metallica entertainment as well.

A special package for the night includes:

  • Ticket to the Friday night game of the Giants and Dodgers
  • Metallica will handle special pre-game activities
  • Metallica entertainment throughout the game
  • Special-edition Metallica Giants hat
  • Portion of the proceeds will be donated to the Bill Graham Foundation

This will be the opening home game for the San Francisco Giants at AT&T Park, and it is certainly going to be a loud one.

The news is the news and sometimes it has to deal with politics and sometimes it has to deal with children. It could be about a natural disaster or whether the dollar is still worth the same in all countries. Whatever is going on though, Danny will let you know about it.
