SPRING TRAINING 2013
WELCOMES BACK OUR
DETROIT TIGER AMERICAN
LEAGUE CHAMPIONS!
Join us on February 19 as we celebrate the
return of our Detroit Tigers—the 2012 American
League Champions—to their Spring Training
home at Joker Marchant Stadium with the 67th
Annual Tiger BBQ! For more than a century,
Florida’s extraordinary climate and beautiful
natural surroundings have provided the perfect
backdrop to prepare big league teams for the
regular season of America’s favorite national
pastime—BASEBALL!
Spring Training in Florida brings more than 1.5
million enthusiastic fans from all over the country
to enjoy the magic of baseball in a more intimate
setting. A major league training team is essential
to draw visitors, winter residents, national visibility,
and BIG business to Florida cities. Lakeland has
been the Spring Training home to the Detroit
Tigers for more than 77 years bringing millions of
dollars into our community. We are even more
fortunate to have their Class A Lakeland Flying
Tigers here year round and all of the ancillary
business the Detroit Tigers bring to Lakeland
annually.
Baseball and Lakeland—the perfect pair—see
you at the ballpark—and at the 67th Annual
Tiger BBQ!

Spring Training Tickets please go to Tigers.com
