Oakland A's once again hosting Green Day Fireworks Night

By Matt /Aug. 11, 2015 / Comments

[pic=Green Day Fireworks Night]081015_gdfireworks.jpg[/pic]The Oakland A's will once again be hosting "Green Day Fireworks Night" at the Coliseum in Oakland.

To celebrate the band's induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, the Major League Baseball team will shoot off fireworks set to Green Day's music at the conclusion of their September 5th game against the Seattle Mariners. Tickets are still available for the 6:05pm game and can be purchased here.

The A's hosted the first Green Day Fireworks Night back in August of 2013. Billie Joe and Tré attended that game and Tré threw out the first pitch, as you can watch below. It is unknown at this time whether or not the band will make an appearance at the game again.
