Pirates alert fans that additional Paul Skenes bobbleheads ready to be redeemed

Pirates fans waited in line for upwards of four hours to obtain a Paul Skenes bobblehead before an April 19 game at PNC Park.

Nearly half of the sold-out crowd left empty-handed.

After three-and-a-half months, their wait is over.

The Pirates sent an email Wednesday to those fans who were unable to obtain a bobblehead that day, saying the club has reordered and obtained additional Paul Skenes bobbleheads and will begin distribution to those fans who received digital vouchers.

The bobbleheads will be available between 11 a.m. and 3 p.m. on non-gamedays Monday-Thursday in August, starting Monday, at PNC Park.

They will extend hours to 7 p.m. Aug. 13 and Aug. 27 and will be available from 9 a.m. to noon Aug. 16.

Pirates staff will be located at the entrance near the Willie Stargell statue to assist with redemption.

A digital voucher is required for redemption.

The bobbleheads can also be redeemed inside the ballpark at a future game, starting Aug. 18, at the season ticket holder headquarters. A game ticket is required.

The Pirates gave away 20,000 bobbleheads before the Pirates faced the Guardians on April 19, but because of the demand, chairman Bob Nutting assured remaining fans in attendance they would also receive a bobblehead.
