Event Report: 8/14/2007: Oakland A's game

[Guest guest]

Tuesday evening, Miranda and I leafleted for an hour outside the Oakland Arena

after the evening Oakland A's game. We leafleted with the DVD player; however,

due to the large numbers of young children in the audience, we will not use the

video in the future after baseball games. This is a great demographic for

leafleting; there are many young adults in attendance. As expected, there was a

higher throw-out rate than our street leafleting outings; we kept the litter to

a minimum by picking up leaflets during lulls in the crowd. We had a few good

conversations with attendees, including one man who was very interested in what

we were showing despite his wife's insistent cries of " oh, they're vegetarians. "

 

I'd expect Giant's games at AT & T Park to be similarly conducive to leafleting.

 

For those interested in video leafleting, I purchased the following model for

just over $100:

We'll see you in the streets.
