At the Panthers, kids eat free in December
The Panthers have dubbed December "Kids Month" and among the offerings is free food for fans 12 and under.
Here's how it works: with the purchase of every adult ticket to a Panthers home game this month, fans can also buy up to four kids tickets that include a voucher for a free hot dog, pretzel, drink, and a bag of chips. Vouchers can be cashed in at the Publix Kids Korner, the kid-friendly area on the main concourse between sections 124 and 128 that was launched this season to offer special kid menu items, interactive games and entertainment to keep youngsters occupied during games.
In addition, after Friday's game against the New York Islanders; the Dec. 22 game against the Toronto Maple Leafs; the Dec. 28 game against the Montreal Candiens; and the Dec. 30 game against the Philadelphia Flyers, kids 12 and under will have a chance to meet and get autographs from Panthers players on the plaza level at BankAtlantic Center.
The Kansas City Royals have a promotion called "Kids Eat Free on Sundays," where kids under 15 get a coupon for a hot dog and small soda at Sunday home games.
