PORTLAND, OR – When your team name is the “Pickles,” fans in your stadium expect, well, pickles. And what’s a baseball game without cocktails? Now, thanks to a new sponsorship with The Original Pickle Shot® (“TOPS”), the top-selling pickle spirit in the U.S., Portland Pickles fans can enjoy pickle shots and delicious pickle-infused drinks (those 21+ of course) at Pickles home games in Portland’s Walker Stadium.
As a presenting sponsor of The Portland Pickles, TOPS will have signage throughout the ballpark and the stadium concessionaire has chosen to sell TOPS at their bars and provide someone who will roam the ballpark during games with a pickle shot backpack, offering samples. The expansive 2-year partnership also includes PA announcements, social media promotion, and various giveaway nights during the season.
“It’s such a perfect match, The Original Pickle Shot and The Portland Pickles. But beyond our shared love for pickles, The Portland Pickles are beloved by their Pickles Nation fans because of their outsized popularity and reputation as a fun and irreverent organization, which completely aligns with our brand and our focus on fun and celebration,” says Laura Becraft, CEO of The Original Pickle Shot. “The Portland Pickles are the biggest party in town, and we’re here for it!”
The Portland Pickles, last year’s West Coast League champions, kick off their 10th anniversary season on May 27 against the Portland Rosebuds.
“This partnership is a match made in heaven! We are so excited to introduce The Original Pickle Shot to our fans. It’s Dill-icious, it’s fun, and now it’s right at home at Walker Stadium. Dillon, the original Portland Pickle, has finally found his Pickle shot,” adds Courtney Schmidt, General Manager of the Portland Pickles.
To enjoy The Original Pickle Shot at home, is also available for special order purchase at licensed Oregon Liquor & Cannabis Commission stores throughout the state.
