TICKET and STADIUM SEATING INFORMATION!!!

(this was updated Sept 21, 2007)

  • Those PLAYING with the Alumni Band (MARCHING into the stadium with Tech Band) will be able to get into the game FREE. Tech Band will be entering the field as a block from the North Endzone and do the stadium march in just prior to pre-game. 

  • Everyone NOT PLAYING in the Alumni Band must purchase a ticket. Everybody age 3+ must have a ticket to get in.  Jeff will have reduced tickets costing $8.00 Saturday at the tailgating event. Come and get them between 12:00-3:00 pm. (regular price is $16.00)

  • Tech Band seating has moved! They will be sitting in Section Q on the East side (next to the steps on the South end).

  • Because the band seating has moved, they will be surrounded by visiting fans. These fans have tickets with seat numbers specified. So, Alumni Band (non-playing) will block an area in Section QQ directly ABOVE the Tech Band.  If there are not many visiting fans, we can always move down later.

  • We ask that everybody not playing in the Alumni Band (including kids), please STAY OUT of the Tech Band set.  Thanks ...!


TAILGATING 2007

We have been promised that we can take the hill once again. What a perfect tailgating spot!

Meet us there after noon sometime (officially from 1:30-kickoff).  We will be on the East side of the stadium, on the corner hill just outside the track fence. Look for the Alumni Band Banner! Click below for a printable map. Park your car and plan on staying.

We will eat starting about 2:00 and from then on, it will just be eat and relax until 4:00 when the pre-game festivities start. Tailgating will cost you only $5 a person (ages 3 and under free). Bring your friends and anybody else you have with you. There should be plenty for everybody. We also would remind you to stop by the store on your way and bring your favorite bag of cookies or chips to share with everybody (this seriously keeps the cost down). The main course hamburgers, hot dogs, sausage, and sodas will be provided.  We are expecting quite a turnout!
