The Fresno Grizzlies, a minor league affiliate of the Colorado Rockies, faced a discrimination lawsuit over a 'Ladies Night' promotion from last season. The lawsuit was filed against the team last week, according to YourCentralValley.com. It hinges on the promotion from May 25, 2023, in which female fans were allowed into the ballpark for free while men and 'nonbinary persons' needed to pay to get into Chukchansi Park. Harry Crouch, the male plaintiff in the lawsuit, said he paid $18 to get into the stadium while the female plaintiff, Christine Johnson, was able to get into the game for free. 'The Fresno Grizzlies’ ill-conceived ‘Ladies’ Night’ promotion seemingly sexualized female fans by treating them as little more than sexual bait in order to attract men to buy tickets to the game.
