Durham Bulls Encouraging Ticketholders To Arrive Early Thursday

The Durham Bulls are urging fans with tickets to Thursday's game to arrive early!

A pre-game appearance by "American Idol" finalist and Raleigh native Clay Aiken is expected to draw quite a crowd.

Aiken will throw out the first pitch and sing the national anthem before the Bulls' sell-out game against the Rochester Red Wings.

Ticketholders are encouraged to arrive before 5 p.m. and use downtown parking decks located on Main Street, Ramseur Street, Chapel Hill Street and Foster Street.
