Woman Injured in Diamond Dig Promotion

Posted on by Chief Marketer Staff

A woman in a race to dig for diamonds in the infield at last Thursday’s Delmarva Shorebirds game was rushed to a hospital after she tripped in a crowd of gemstone-hungry mad dashers.

“She didn’t find jewelry, but the good thing was, she was treated right away,” Nick Mirabello, Shorebirds marketing and communications manager, told The Daily Times of Salisbury, MD.

The injured woman fell as fellow contest participants armed with plastic spoons charged onto the infield to dig for five boxes of buried diamonds worth $10,000, according to the report.

About 150 women participated in the annual event, which was sponsored by a local jeweler.
