New Ticket Policy
For Home Football Games

All Sam Houston State Faculty-Staff and Students must have a ticket to be admitted each game. The tickets are free and will be issued on game day upon presentation of an SHSU ID at Gate 1-A at the tent located under the scoreboard at the north end of Bowers Stadium.

Another change this year is that the Sam Houston State Bearkat Marching Band will sit on the west (press box) side of Bowers Stadium in Section H.

When SHSU Faculty-Staff and Students pick up their free ticket each game day, they will have two seating choices. They may redeem a reserved seat on the West Side in Section G or the upper part of Section H or a general admission ticket for a seat on the East Side. Only one ticket will be issued per SHSU ID. West Side seating is contingent upon availability at game time.

SHSU Faculty-Staff Family Athletic Activity Passes which will admit all members of the faculty-staff member's immediate family into all SHSU regular season athletic events (football, volleyball, basketball, baseball, softball, and track) are available at the SHSU Athletic Department for just $30.

Sam Houston State will play five home football games during the 2000 season. Games are Thursday, Sept. 7 Southeastern Oklahoma State, 7 p.m.; Saturday, Sept. 23 Texas A&M-Kingsville (Parents' Weekend), 7 p.m.; Saturday, Oct. 21 Troy State, 7 p.m.; Saturday, Oct. 28 McNeese State (Homecoming), 2 p.m.; and Saturday, Nov. 18 Southwest Texas (Letterwinners' Day), 2 p.m.

For more information, please call (936) 294-1727 or 294-4205.
