Winners of the on-field dating games were treated to their own &#8220;first date,&#8221; complete with a reserved table in the Ryan Chevrolet First Base Club, where they could get to know each other while watching the Honeybees play.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The experience began as soon as fans entered the ballpark, where they could choose a red, yellow, or green relationship-status bracelet. Local businesses also helped bring the theme to life, with Northern Bottling providing Love Island-inspired Poppi drinks, IronHorse Kitchen + Bar offering samples, and Atypical Brewery &amp; Barrelworks and Absolute Honey participating in the festivities.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">&#8220;Our goal has always been to create immersive, interactive experiences that go beyond the game,&#8221; said Minot Hot Tots and Honeybees General Manager Monica Blake. &#8220;We want fans to be part of the fun and leave with memories they&#8217;ll talk about long after the season ends. Singles Night was a great example of that, and it&#8217;s exciting to see that recognized by the league.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The award highlights the Hot Tots&#8217; and Honeybees&#8217; continued commitment to creating unique, memorable experiences that bring fans together and make a night at Corbett Field about more than just baseball or softball.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MINOT HONEYBEES EARN 2026 NORTHWOODS LEAGUE SOFTBALL OUTSTANDING THEME NIGHT AWARD\u00a0 Singles Night recognized for its
