UPDATE: This service also will be available on Friday, March 30, 2018 due to the postponed Opening Day game.
“At Wallside Windows, we love the Tigers,” said Chief of Staff Adam Blanck. “We want to make sure everyone who celebrates our team gets home safely on Opening Day.”
Fans departing Comerica Park will be able to enter a promo code in the Lyft app before requesting a ride. Wallside Windows will pay for half the cost of their ride home.
“Last year, we were able to provide hundreds of Tigers fans with a safe ride home at half the cost. When those fans watch the games on TV, they hear us promote half off deals on the replacement windows we make, so this seemed like the right thing for us to do again this year. We’re glad we can provide a safe ride home from Opening Day at half off and we hope even more fans take us up on the offer this year,” explained Wallside Windows Vice President Stanford Blanck.
Complete details of the Safe Ride With Wallside program are available on the Wallside Windows website: http://wallsidewindows.com/openingday. Wallside will cover half the total cost of Lyft rides up to $30.
"Lyft is proud to provide a responsible ride whenever you need one and we’re thrilled to partner with Wallside to make this an option for fans on opening day,” said Elliot Darvick, Lyft’s General Manager for Detroit.
Wallside Windows is a family owned business that started in Detroit in 1944. Today, the Wallside team includes hundreds of people who manufacture windows at the company’s factory in Taylor and install them in homes throughout Michigan and northern Ohio.
