The SF Giants recently sponsored "Stitch-N-Pitch" night. You bought a special Stitch-n-Pitch ticket, and along with the ticket you got a knitting bag, some skeins of yarn (in Giants' colors, 'natch), a pair of needles, and some instructions on knitting a SF cap. It was a fun event and I saw lots and lots of knitters at the game. Between one of the innings they had a "knitting contest" - it was totally staged but really fun. A couple of knitters competed against each other by speed knitting, knitting over their head, and finally, knitting with baseball bats. Very cute.

My husband and I are season ticket holders, so we already had tickets to the game. I was able to noodle my ticket rep into getting one of the bags for me. I'm showing a photo below of the bag and its contents.

FWIW, I knit at night games all the time and never need any additional lighting. I am careful to take items that can be washed, in the event of a spilled beer or soda. If I don't have something going that is washable, then I'll take cotton and do a little washcloth - I can usually get a cloth done during the ride down and the game - plus it's not too large to tote around the stadium.

I saw those "flashlight" needles and didn't like the feel too much. But, I wouldn't mind having a pair for the novelty of taking them out of my knitting bag while we're camping or at an outdoor movie.

Wow! What a neat promotion. I would love to be able to participate in something like that, but alas, I live in Montana and no such thing happens here like that. But it's pretty neat!!! It sounds like a lot of fun. I am a Cubs fan, but heck, I'd be a Giants fan for a day for that! Ha Ha.

I've heard of those light-up needles. A lady at Michaels told me about them. I didn't see any in the store but I'll check again in the future. Sounds great to me.
