Reds inviting fans to join “Tarps off” Tuesdays

CINCINNATI (WXIX) - A viral trend that is spreading at ball parks across the country is now coming to Great American Ball Park in Cincinnati.
The Reds are inviting fans to join “Tarps off” 3-2-1 Tuesdays during home games.
If you haven’t heard about it, “Tarps off” means that fans take off their shirts - also known as tarps in this case- and waive them above their heads to boost morale and energy at the ball park.
The Reds say rows L-Y in sections 401 - 406 (Kroger Bleachers) will be dedicated “Tarps Off” Tuesday sections at GABP.
Any fan, regardless of where they are sitting, can join in and waive their “tarps”.
