The Memphis Grizzlies announced their promotional schedule today, and in addition to the usual assortment of popular fan giveaways — headbands, scarves, posters, camo hats (for military appreciation night) — the team has included some interesting new items. On March 14th, the first 5,000 fans through the gate will receive a Marc Gasol Growth Chart. On January 31st, a game against the Oklahoma City Thunder, the first 3,000 fans will receive a Grizzlies Wrestling Belt. On April 4th, the first 5,000 fans will receive a Z-Bow-Tie, in honor of big man Zach Randolph.

Perhaps the best promotion of all, though, takes place February 27th for a game against the Los Angeles Clippers. The first 5,000 fans through the door will receive Grizzlies Flip Flops, which is a direct shot at Chris Paul and Blake Griffin and their propensity to exaggerate contact on the court.
