Cubs Release Schedule for Promo Items, Theme Nights, Special Ticket Offers
This is straight from the press release, no commentary from me here except to say that the “Theme Nights” are kinda funny.
The Chicago Cubs today released the schedule for promotional items, theme nights and Special Ticket Offers for the 2022 regular season which includes five bobbleheads on select Saturdays in May, August and September, the return of #BudFridays and seven theme nights such as WWE Day, Shark Week Night and the ever-popular Sesame Street Day.
PROMOTIONAL ITEMS
Fans can get their hands on five new bobbleheads this year on select Saturdays during the regular season after a two-year hiatus due to the pandemic. Cubs manager David Ross kicks off the bobblehead series Saturday, May 7, and fan-favorite Marcus Stroman concludes the series in mid-September. Bobbleheads will be given to the first 10,000 fans who enter Wrigley Field. The bobblehead schedule is as follows:

New this year, fans also have the opportunity to enter for a chance to win an additional prize through a QR code located on the bobblehead box. QR codes will be included on all bobbleheads except for the David Ross bobblehead and the additional prize will be communicated to fans ahead of each game.
#BudFridays are back with six “best of” bleacher giveaways including an assortment of hats, shirts and a fanny pack, all of which feature a retro neon thematic.
