Baby Safety Night

Remember when pop star Britney Spears was photographed driving with her baby son sitting in her lap? Boy, she took a lotta heat over that in February 2006.

Well, just about that time, the Newark Jersey Bears, a New Jersey member of the Canadian American Association of Professional Baseball, decided to use her as a bad example. On Friday, Aug. 4, 2006, the Bears hosted “Britney Spears Baby Safety Night.”

Any fan who dressed like a baby, or brought an actual baby, or just a baby toy, got in free. All of the fans got a brochure on baby carrier safety, and got a chance to win a free car seat from the Automobile Association of America.

Originally a member of the Atlantic League of Professional Baseball, the Bears are not affiliated with Major League Baseball.

I love minor league baseball promotions!
