As presenting sponsor of the 2023 season, Caesars Virginia will be recognized as an Otterbots Community Champion, partnering with the club on their mission to provide unmatched, affordable, family-friendly entertainment for Danville and Southern Virginia. For the first time in team history, Opening Night will be capped off with a postgame fireworks show presented by Caesars Virginia. The Otterbots home slate will conclude with a Fan Appreciation party featuring a bobblehead giveaway for the first 500 fans through the gates.
“Caesars Virginia is looking forward to bringing its Team Members and guests out for Otterbots games this summer,” said Chris Albrecht, Caesars Virginia General Manager. “This partnership is an excellent opportunity for us to showcase one of the great amenities that Danville has to offer while providing Caesars a fun way to engage with the community.”
