Racket’s Sept-Member Fall Membership Drive: Get Your First Month for $1!

*FINAL DAY!* Heckuva deal for new members. *FINAL DAY!*

It's muggy. It's 85 degrees. It's fall in Minnesota amid an unfettered climate crisis, and that can only mean...

Well, it could actually mean thousands upon thousands of things.

But we're here to talk about one thing, specifically: The single dollar you can spend for an entire month of Racket during our so-called Sept-Member Fall Membership Drive. That'll give you unlimited articles, commenting privileges to Minnesota's only redeemable comment section, and periodic ticket giveaways beamed straight into your inbox. Plus the warm feeling that comes with supporting this state's only worker-owned, independent, reader-funded media operation.

But wait, that's not all! Every new subscriber between now and September 30 (aka the conclusion of Sept-Member) will be entered into a drawing to win one of the almost-sold-out LIMITED EDITION Racket hoodies—perfect for our sweltering autumn. Additionally, every new membership will inch us closer to the monumental/arbitrary milestone of 5,000 total members. (We're 128 short, at press time.) Keep track via the cartoon thermometer below.

This Sept-Member deal is available to new members only; memberships renew at the bargain rate of $5/month.
