Prior to tickets going on sale to the general public, the Rochester Rhinos have created a promotion offering one ticket to the USA-Mexico game and two tickets to any remaining Rhinos home game with packages starting at $42. This Rhinos promotional offer goes on sale immediately and runs until Monday, Aug. 4, at 5 p.m. ET, while supplies last.
