- What’s the news: It’s Opening
Day at T-Mobile Park! The Un-carrier will host Macklemore for an
epic pre-game performance in the T-Mobile ‘Pen and unleash tons of
new fan perks, for today and every game day.
- Why it matters: This marks the
beginning of a 25-year partnership between T-Mobile and the Seattle
Mariners, as the Un-carrier invests even more deeply in its
hometown to bring fans an unmatched ballpark experience.
- Who it’s for: Mariners fans. And
ALL the fans visiting our hometown T-Mobile Park.
It’s Opening Day! That means T-Mobile (NASDAQ: TMUS) and the
Seattle Mariners are cutting ribbon on the newly minted T-Mobile
Park this afternoon at 1:00 pm PT. The Un-carrier is going all-in
for the best fans in MLB by offering an unmatched ballpark
experience right in its own backyard, starting with an
unforgettable pre-game performance by homegrown icon, Macklemore!
Other fan perks include a brand new cocktail, high-speed charging
stations, awesome surprises and more – plus, extras just for
T-Mobile customers, like a dedicated fast track entrance, an
enhanced network experience and surprise giveaways.
“For us, this is about so much more than a new name – it’s about
showing our hometown love and giving all fans an unbeatable
experience, every time they come to T-Mobile Park,” said John
Legere, CEO of T-Mobile. “And we can’t wait to kick off a new era
of Mariners baseball with an iconic lineup of Seattle favorites for
fans today – Macklemore, Mike McCready and Edgar Martinez! All the
‘M’s’ for the M’s!”
Yep, T-Mobile Park is hosting a bevy of local favorites to kick
off the season, starting with a pre-game performance by Macklemore
in the T-Mobile ‘Pen today at 3:30 pm PT! Get there early, as space
is limited to the first 2,000 fans. Then, stay tuned for Pearl Jam
guitarist Mike McCready who’ll perform the National Anthem, and
Hall of Famer Edgar Martinez throwing the first pitch to usher in
an epic new season for Mariners fans.
Of course, the Un-carrier perks will keep percolating well
beyond Opening Day! For one, the T-Mobile ‘Pen serves up some of
the best views in the park – so naturally, it opens up 2.5 hours
before game time so fans can scope out batting practice and pitcher
warm-ups. And on select game days, surprise giveaways and a DJ will
crank energy in the T-Mobile ‘Pen to an all-time high. The T-Mobile
‘Pen is also home to the new Magenta Mojo cocktail – a disruptively
light and refreshing beverage crafted by 2019 James Beard Award
Semifinalist Anu Apte to celebrate a new era of Mariners baseball.
Available for $12.50 in the T-Mobile ‘Pen, as well as Terrace Club
Lounges and Lookout Landing, fans ready to turn it up to 11 can
even get the bubbly beverage with a souvenir take-home light up
magenta ice cube for $15.50!
Plus, to keep fans connected and fully charged, T-Mobile has
installed 19 high-speed charging areas throughout the park,
including lockers, so there’s no need to stay tethered to the phone
-- just drop it off and come back when ready.
T-Mobile thanks customers every Tuesday with freebies and
deals…and now in partnership with the Mariners, the Un-carrier is
bringing it to the park and extending it to ALL fans! During
Tuesday home games this season:
- Fans could get thanked with VIP seat
upgrades, along with free food, beverages and M’s gear!
- Together, T-Mobile and the Mariners are
thanking non-profit organizations for their contributions to the
Seattle community by bringing members to attend and highlighting
their work during the game.
- And, to double down on hometown love,
T-Mobile will donate $10,000 to support their cause.
Un-carrier customers are especially in luck, because they’re
scoring their very own fast track entrance right into the T-Mobile
‘Pen – they just need to show their T-Mobile phone and they’re in!
And to ensure they can keep those pics posting and those tweets
tweeting, T-Mobile permanently increased capacity in the park by
THREE TIMES and boosted its deployment of LTE-Advanced
technologies. And you never know when the Un-carrier might surprise
its customers with a game-day giveaway, just because…
Over the next 25 years, T-Mobile will bring innovative tech
experiences to the park, starting with the T-Mobile Tech Experience
and Future of Wireless Truck on Opening Day. Right inside the
center field gates, fans will have a chance to hit a ‘5G home run’
at a batting simulator and learn how the next generation of
wireless tech will improve gaming, sports and more. Or they can
head down the road to The Hot Corner (next to Henry’s Tavern) to
snag special augmented reality cards from T-Mobile team members,
free grub, prizes and more! It’s almost too good to be true.
