Football season is not here yet, but as it quickly approaches, the Boca Raton Public Library has decided to partner with Florida Atlantic University for a special promotion.
The library will be celebrating Love Libraries Day on Saturday, September 16 when the FAU Owls take on the Bethune-Cookman Wildcats.
September is Library Card Sign-Up Month, so in celebration, those who sign up for a new library card will be able to buy tickets to the September 16 game for only $5. Current Boca Raton Public Library cardholders will also be able to get the same rate.
The game will also host festivities for FAU’s Youth Day on the same day, so fans will have plenty of free games, activities and entertainment besides the typical tailgating before the start of the game.
FAU’s football season is set to kick-off on Friday, September 1 at home against the Navy. They will then travel to Wisconsin the following week, before returning home for their second home game on September 16 at 8 p.m.
To purchase tickets for the game or for more information, fans can call Evan Siegel at 561-297-0068.
