If there’s one thing the White Sox consistently get right-aside from the occasional timely hit-it’s their giveaways. The South Siders know how to bring fans through the gates with creative promos, and 2026 looks to be no different. While the full slate of giveaways hasn’t dropped just yet, we’re already getting a sneak peek at what’s in store thanks to the release of this year’s theme nights.
Leading the early buzz? A bobblehead that’s already making waves online.
The team is rolling out a Southpaw bobblehead-yes, the ever-energetic, green-furred mascot-flashing the now-iconic “6-7” hand gesture. It’s a nod to the team’s clubhouse culture and fanbase lingo, and it’s set to be handed out during Kids Opening Day on Saturday, April 4.
The collectible was first spotted in a viral post on social media and has since taken on a life of its own among Sox fans.
But this isn’t just a simple grab-and-go giveaway. According to the team, the Southpaw “67” bobblehead is part of a special ticket package.
Fans who purchase through the designated link will receive the bobblehead-while supplies last-along with access to a pregame parade around the Warning Track and, of course, a ticket to the game. It’s a full-on family experience, and it’s easy to see why this one’s going to be circled on a lot of calendars.
The timing of the giveaway is also worth noting. The White Sox open the 2026 season on the road, heading to Milwaukee for their first official action on Thursday, March 26.
They’ll return to the South Side the following week, with the home opener set for Thursday, April 2 against the Toronto Blue Jays. That means the April 4 Kids Opening Day-and the Southpaw bobblehead-lands during the season-opening home stand, giving fans an early opportunity to get back to the ballpark and grab a piece of memorabilia that’s already generating plenty of hype.
For fans planning a group outing or looking to lock in 10 or more tickets, the team has set up a direct line through Robert Clark in the ticket office. And for those who want to see what else is on the promotional calendar this season, the full list of theme nights is available through the team’s official site.
Bottom line: if you’re a White Sox fan-or just someone who appreciates a good bobblehead-it’s time to start planning. The Southpaw “67” bobblehead is real, it’s happening, and it might just be one of the hottest items on the South Side this spring.
