Minor League Spotlight: Lindsay Lohan Drunk Driving Awareness Night

Minor League Spotlight is the MLB FanHouse's look into baseball's minor leagues. But you probably figured that out already.

Just another reason to love minor league promotions, as Thursday featured a good one courtesy of the Savannah Sand Gnats:

Thursday, Aug. 2 will be Lindsay Lohan Drunk Driving Awareness Night at Grayson Stadium as the Sand Gnats will take on the Greensboro Grasshoppers at 7:05 p.m. in the finale of a four-game series. The game is sponsored by Grainger Honda.

It will be a Thirsty Thursday with half-priced beer and Coke and $1 Papa John's Pizza slices presented by Connect Savannah, Rock 106.1 and Papa John's Pizza. However, the Sand Gnats encourage all fans in attendance to learn from the redheaded actress' mistakes and plan for safe transportation home from the game.

Hook Towing will have a wrecked car from a drunk driving accident on display on the plaza in front of the main gate. Savannah Highway Enforcement of Aggressive Traffic (HEAT) will also be at the game with its blood alcohol testing van.

Really, what's better than promoting safe driving, and totally skewering a hollywood celebrity in the process? Outstanding! No immediate word on when the Sand Gnats will hold "Britney Spears Put Your Baby in a Car Seat Awareness Night".
