Discounted Tickets for a Cause
As part of its Kickoff for a Cause mission to support children with cancer, the Aflac Kickoff Game is now offering discounted upper-level tickets for only $50, with $10 of the proceeds from each ticket going toward the Peach Bowl LegACy Fund. Established in 2019, the Peach Bowl LegACy Fund aims to tackle childhood cancer by funding clinical trials for cutting-edge treatments at the Aflac Cancer and Blood Disorders Center of Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta.
New A-Town Lounge
Fans can purchase tickets and become the first to watch a college football game from the new A-Town Lounge. As the newest premium experience on the 300 level of Mercedes-Benz Stadium, the A-Town Lounge serves as a social, high-energy destination where fans can enjoy all-inclusive food and non-alcoholic beverages, as well as private restrooms, a private bar and cushioned seats. This club-level experience without the club-level price can be purchased for only $75, with $10 of the proceeds from each ticket also going toward the Peach Bowl LegACy Fund and its mission to tackle childhood cancer.
The Aflac Kickoff Game has sold out 17 of 21 games since its creation in 2008. With limited inventory available, fans are encouraged to purchase tickets from these new ticket offerings as soon as possible while they still remain.
A few, select tickets also remain for Sunday’s Aflac Kickoff Game between Virginia Tech and South Carolina. Fans interested in locating tickets for that matchup are encouraged to visit Ticketmaster.com, home to the Aflac Kickoff Game’s official resale ticket exchange.
“Saturday’s game is focused on our Kickoff for a Cause mission and our joint effort with Aflac to raise funds to eradicate childhood cancer,” said Gary Stokan, Peach Bowl, Inc. CEO and president. “We decided to offer a couple of new ticket options for that game so that fans can purchase tickets for an affordable price, but also help give back to the cause.”
Syracuse and South Carolina are both set to make their first-ever appearances in the Aflac Kickoff Game. Tennessee returns for the third time after winning its two previous games in 2012 vs. NC State and a double-overtime thriller in 2017 vs. Georgia Tech. Virginia Tech will also make the program’s third appearance in the game after facing Alabama during its previous two trips in 2009 and 2013.
This will mark only the fourth meeting between the Syracuse and Tennessee football programs, while Virginia Tech and South Carolina will face off for the 21st time. The Volunteers hold a 3-0 all-time record vs. the Orange, including a 33-9 Tennessee win in their most recent meeting during the 2001 season. South Carolina holds an 11-7-2 all-time record vs. the Hokies, but this will be their first matchup in 34 years after the Gamecocks prevailed 28-21 in 1991.
