Greenville Drive to welcome 6 Millionth Fan through Fluor Field: How to win honorary title
Next month, the Greenville Drive will welcome its 6 millionth fan through the gates of Fluor Field.
"To put the number in perspective, 6 million is roughly the size of metro Atlanta." said a Greenville Drive press release. "Standing shoulder to shoulder in a line, 6 million people would fill the space between New York City and Los Angeles."
To commemorate the milestone, the Greenville Drive will celebrate with the local community, choosing seven individuals between July 1 and July 8 to participate in in-game competitions or at random to compete for a chance to be crowned the Honorary 6 Millionth Fan, per the press release.
"This is an incredibly exciting milestone and underscores the strength of the partnerships the Drive has forged over the past twenty years with our fans, our sponsors, the City of Greenville and the entire Upstate community. This celebration is a testament to the power of 'community.'" said Greenville Drive owner and chairman Craig Brown.
Here's what to know about the competition's selection process.
The selection process for the competition will be held from July 1-3 during the Greenville Drive's three-game Freedom Fest homestand. Two ticket holders will be selected at the July 2 game, one on July 2, and two on July 3, including the winner of the Greenville Drive's Hot Dog Eating Competition before the game.
The lucky five contestants will attend the July 8 Greenville Drive game where two more ticket holders will be selected to join them in the competition. The seven contestants will compete throughout the game for a chance to unlock a grand prize box. The contestant who unlocks the box will win the title and the ultimate Greenville Drive 6 Millionth Fan grand prize package.
