BOCA RATON, Fla. – New Coach + New Era + New Conference = more experiences for Florida Atlantic University football fans. The Owls will play their inaugural American Athletic Conference contest versus Tulsa on Saturday, Oct. 7 and will then host UTSA on Saturday, Oct. 21.
In celebration of the historic first two AAC contests, a new tailgating event is being presented by Islamorada Brewery & Distillery. While the kick times have not been announced, the tailgates will open two and a half hours prior to gametime and will be located outside of FAU Stadium Gates 1 and 2. This event will be all-inclusive, offering all the "bells and whistles" of a traditional tailgate, without the hassle of setting up, breaking down or battling the South Florida weather. A DJ will help fan goers "Get into An Island State of Mind®" and if that doesn't get you ready for the game an appearance by the FAU spirit team certainly will. Fans will have the opportunity to participate in contests as well as receive Islamorada Brewery & Distillery giveaways.
The exclusive event tickets may be purchased for Tulsa or for UTSA. Options are available for you or your entire party with your previously purchased game ticket and parking or without.
For more information, please reach out to your ticket account manager or call 1-866-FAU-Owls.
