TEMPLE UNIVERSITY ATHLETIC DEPARTMENT ENCOURAGES ADVANCE TICKET PURCHASES FOR FOOTBALL GAME AGAINST VIRGINIA TECH ON SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 15

11.11.03 | Football

The Temple University Athletic Department is encouraging fans that plan to attend the football game against nationally-ranked Virginia Tech on Saturday, November 15 at 1 p.m. at Lincoln Financial Field to purchase tickets in advance. A large walk-up crowd is expected to see the Hokies in action, as well as star running back Kevin Jones, a Chester native and product of Cardinal O'Hara High School in Springfield, Delaware County. Jones is coming off of a 241-yard, four touchdown game against Pittsburgh, and is a legitimate candidate for this year's Heisman Trophy Award, given to the nation's best college football player.

"This is a great opportunity to see one of the premiere players in all of college football," said Bill Bradshaw, Temple's Director of Athletics. "In an effort to alleviate long lines and congestion on Saturday at the Lincoln Financial Field Box Office, we are encouraging people to purchase tickets in advance through Ticketmaster or the Liacouras Center Box Office during the week. Nonetheless, I'm confident that we've taken the proper measures to efficiently service every person who does walk up to buy a ticket on Saturday."

In addition to the 13 point of sale ticket locations that will be open at the Head House Box Office (facing Pattison Avenue), Temple will open an auxiliary ticket sales location on the Darien Street side of Lincoln Financial Field. All "will call" pickup will be located on the 11th Street side of the stadium at the ticket windows next to the West Stairway. Patrons with questions can approach any of the uniformed customer service representatives who will be greeting fans as they approach the stadium on foot.

Tickets at $15, $30 and $50 are available at the Liacouras Center Box Office, day of game at the Lincoln Financial Field Box Office, and all Ticketmaster locations throughout the Delaware Valley. Kids tickets are also available for $10. Tickets can also be charged by phone by calling Ticketmaster at (215) 336-2000, (856) 338-9000 or (302) 984-2000. For information about special group discounts, patrons may call 215-204-6710.
