Party at the Plaza Returns Saturday

Arkansas Tech University will offer fans the opportunity to enjoy a family-friendly atmosphere before Arkansas Tech home football games this fall.

The university will once again host a pre-game party on the plaza prior to each game.  The first Plaza Party will kick off Saturday at 4 p.m. at Centennial Plaza.

Those in attendance will enjoy music, free inflatable games, tailgating and a pre-game meal.

Beginning at 4:30 p.m., Chartwells will serve a pre-game tailgating meal on the plaza.  The meal costs $6, and it will feature several tailgating staples. Students who have a meal plan will be charged one swipe for the meal.

Students, alumni and friends will also be able to show their school spirit by being photographed on the green carpet.  Green carpet participants are invited to don their green and gold and be photographed for a chance to win a giftcard to the Arkansas Tech Bookstore.

The Arkansas Tech University Alumni Association will be on hand handing out complimentary fans and buttons to those wishing to support the Arkansas Tech University Wonder Boys.

Beginning at 5 p.m., attendees will be able to purchase Arkansas Tech apparel from the Arkansas Tech Bookstore location inside the stadium beginning.

The first 300 students to visit the student section will receive a spirit towel to use to support the Wonder Boys during Saturday’s 6 p.m. contest against Bacone College.
