FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) -- For $20 you can get two tickets to see the Fresno Grizzlies take on the Oklahoma City Dodgers and get married with mascot and ordained minister, Parker T. Bear.

The Grizzlies say Parker is the only officially ordained Mascot-Minister in professional sports licensed to perform weddings -- as far as they know. Parker will have the certificates and cards to make the wedding official -- but couples will need to supply a marriage license.

"People get married without a big wedding all the time, we 're just providing the most colorful backdrop for it. Getting hitched by Parker at a Grizzlies game will be a memory that lasts a lifetime," said Sam Hanson, Grizzlies Marketing Director.

Thursday's promotion is part of "My Big Fat Fresno Wedding Show." The show, held in the concourse area includes vendors for wedding flowers, dresses, DJ's and anything else needed for a wedding.
