Definitive Ranking of All 22 Phoenix Suns Promotional Nights
#9: Tip Off / RISE PHX Shirt – 10/23 vs. Sacramento Kings
Everyone knows the three certainties in life: death, taxes, and mankind losing their collective minds for free t-shirts. No matter what age, race, or wealth status, once the t-shirt cannon comes out, elbows will fly at a chance to take home an XXL swath of cotton with advertising all over it. The Phoenix Suns are kicking off the season by just handing them out, a smart and safe move.
#8: Suns Pennant – 11/21 vs. New Orleans Pelicans
Pennants are traditionally thought to be baseball paraphernalia, but over the years, they have crossed over into other sports. They have also, strangely enough, unlike baseball cards, maintained the test of time. Cool pennant collections can be found in kids rooms and man caves alike. Solid giveaway before Thanksgiving.
#7: Fan Appreciation / Suns Pool Towel – 4/15 vs. L.A. Lakers
You can never have enough pool towels. Ever. Even if you don’t use them for drying off, everyone, at some point is working on a project in their house and asked someone close by, “Will you grab an old towel for me? I need it.” Also of note, the Phoenix Suns are wise to have fan appreciation night near the end of the season to reward fans who are still coming out when the likelihood is the team will not be in the playoff hunt
