Minor league baseball teams have a rich history of devising bizarre promotions that push the boundaries of good taste. Case in point: In conjunction with its Thirsty Thursday $2 beer night, the Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp will pass out pregnancy tests to male fans in honor of “You Might Be the Father’s Day.” As the team explains on its website, the tests will determine “if you need to return for Sunday’s Father’s Day game.” In explaining the promotion, the team’s general manager, Harold Craw, told The Florida Times-Union that his Thursday night crowd appreciates it when promotions are “tongue-in-cheek.”
