If the Padres don't reach 2 million tickets sold this year for the first full season since 1993, it won't be for a lack of effort, the North County Times reported.
The Padres are offering a multitude of value-based promotions in 2009 in an attempt to keep fans coming to Petco Park.
The franchise has opted to lower prices on nearly 25 percent of all game tickets earlier this offseason and is offering promotions on 48 of its 81 home dates.
The Padres are also offering seven 2-for-1 ticket games and a 5-for-$5 deal ---- a hot dog, soda, peanuts, popcorn and a cookie ---- at the concession stands for all home games.
