Although no expert, I feel pretty comfortable saying that playing with vampires rarely leads to good things. However for the Fourth of July, Fan Trips and the Make-A-Wish Foundation are teaming up to create a very good thing with some well known vampires, or at least the people who play them on the big screen. This Saturday, Portland’s PGE field will host a rowdy (amplified by the fact that vampires play baseball during thunderstorms due to the loud cracks their swings make—but you already knew that of course) game of Vampire Baseball® featuring members of the Twilight and New Moon cast and crew, including actors Edi Gathegi, Rachelle Lefevre, Alex Meraz and Gavin Bristol. The game starts at 9 a.m. with a game between fans and crew members. The vampires arrive to play (you’ll know who they are since vampires glitter in the sunlight; again, something I’m sure you already knew) at 10:45 p.m.
Tickets to the game run from $49-135 with a portion of all proceeds going towards the Make-A-Wish Foundation and a few lucky fans will even get the chance to play against their favorite blood suckers as determined by a random drawing.
