ARMOUR SQUARE — Chicago White Sox fans who pony up big bucks will get treated to a gourmet barbecue buffet on the U.S. Cellular Field warning track and a private fireworks show, among other perks.

The team's "Picnic in the Park" event, a fundraiser for White Sox Charities, takes place Sunday after the team's day game versus the Toronto Blue Jays, scheduled to start at 1:10 p.m.

The picnic begins one hour after the game and lasts until dusk.

Adult tickets cost $260 each. Tickets for kids cost $135 each. They're available online. 

The evening also includes an exclusive autograph session with the ball club, a silent auction featuring team "experience" prize packages and memorabilia and a chance to play catch in the outfield grass.
