Scooper Sunday

Summer means a lot of things to a lot of people but it’s hard to find many people who disagree with the idea that baseball and ice cream are summer staples.

That’s just one reason Praline’s is proud to be a part of Scooper Sunday at the New Britain Rock Cats minor league baseball game Sunday July 27th. Praline’s is one of several local ice cream makers to take part in the tasting event. And make no mistake, ice cream tasting is the name of this game. Scooper Sunday allows people to pay a fixed prices and sample of the different ice creams on hand. Ice cream tasters are asked to vote for their favorite flavor.

When it comes to this ice cream taste testing contest, Praline’s is looking for a third-straight win. For the past two years, Praline’s Beez Neez has finished tops in the test-testing. And tasters can taste all they want. This is an “all you can eat” event, or until the ice cream runs out. All it will cost you is 10$ for a ticket to Scooper Sunday and a general admission seat top to Rock Cats game that Sunday afternoon. Reserved seat tickets will cost $15.

Scooper Sunday is more than just a great day of ice cream and baseball. It’s a way to give back to a good cause. The event benefits the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention. It’s a great chance to try incredible ice cream with true local flavors, then enjoy baseball and (if you somehow have room) a hot dog as the Rock Cats take on the Portland Sea Dogs, the double-A affiliate of the World Series champion Boston Red Sox. Come for the ice cream, stay for the ballgame. Don’t wait. Tickets to this event are going fast. And don’t forget to try the Beez Neez.
