Reds and the Military?

Hey everyone im from the southeastern Indiana(Batesville/Greensburg area) and Im currently in the Air Force. Right now I'm stationed in Northern Florida but I am getting ready to leave for Japan in May for three years. When I come home i want to try to come to a reds game, does anyone know if they do any kind of military discount for tickets at the gate or any other way? Or if they do any kind of military discount?

They do, last time I was there I got a discount but I don't remember exactly how much.

Re: Reds and the Military?

Do they have a discout for Vets or is it just for active Duty? I was In the Army National Guard from 1981-1987.

Re: Reds and the Military?

You would most likely have to have some form of military ID, from my experience most of those places will take either active duty or retiree IDs. Most clerks don't know the difference, so if you still have a way to get on base you can probably squeek out a discount.

Thanks for your service Gallen!
