August 29 | Mystery Ball Night & Fireworks Show
Which autograph will you get? It's a Mystery!
BACK IN 2023! On Tuesday, August 29, the Bisons will host their 13th Annual Mystery Ball Event & Fireworks Show, in partnership with Buffalo Bills safety Micah Hyde and his Imagine for Youth Foundation during their game against the Indianapolis Indians (7:05 p.m.).
Gates open at 6:00 p.m. but you'll want to head straight to the Oak Gate in the left field corner for this one. At the Oak Gate ONLY, you'll have the opportunity to purchase a special ticket that can be exchanged for one of 500 'Mystery Baseball,' an autographed baseball with the signee's identity hidden in gift wrapping. Who will you get?
Then, after the Bisons game again the Indians, we'll have a spectacular Postgame Fireworks Show!
Mystery Ball Explained...
Over the last year, we've collected 500 autographed baseballs from the biggest names. Of course, some you'd expect to see on a baseball, Vladimir Guerrero Jr.. Bo Bichette and Hyun-Jin Ryu.
Others, like Tage Thompson and Josh Allen... not so much.
Ah, the beauty of the Mystery Ball! When you purchase a Mystery Ball ticket inside Sahlen Field, it can be redeemed for a gift-wrapped baseball from any one of our great participants. Who you get, for now, remains a mystery!!!
