Johnstown Chiefs Welcome Four-Legged Friends

February 20, 2008 - ECHL (ECHL)
Johnstown Chiefs News Release


Johnstown, PA - The Johnstown Chiefs announced today that they have teamed up with Gittler's Aquarium and Aviary to present the first-ever "Pups and Pucks Night".

Dog-owners have a chance to be a part of history when, for the first time in the Chiefs' 20-year history in the ECHL, dogs will be allowed to attend the Chiefs game Wednesday, February 27 against the Reading Royals at 7:05 PM.

For one night only the Party Pit area and the seats in Section Nine will be reserved for dogs and their owners. The Party Pit area and the seats in Section Nine will be the only place in the arena where the dogs will be allowed to watch the game.

As a special treat for all the pups who come to the game, Gittler's will be giving away doggie bags, valued at 25 dollars, filled with goodies to the first 50 dogs to come through the gate. Representatives from the Nardecchia Spay/Neuter Fund will also be located on the concourse providing information on their services, and Stuver's Riverside Nursery will provide an outdoor "doggie restroom."

The "restroom area" for the dogs will be located outside of Section Ten, and like the smoking area outside Section 12, readmittance will be allowed once the dogs are done.

For "Pups and Pucks Night" one dog will be admitted per ticket holder, and any season ticket holder who wishes to bring their dog may. However, season ticket holders who do bring their dog will have to watch the game from Section Nine or the Party Pit.

Owners will be required to keep their dog on a leash throughout the game.

Be sure to come out Sunday, February 24, for "70s Night." All fans sporting 70s wear will receive $1.00 off their tickets at the box office, and the best dressed flashback fan will receive a prize from the Chiefs. If you can't make it that night, don't miss "Ladies Night" on Wednesday, February 27. All ladies will receive a discount at the box office. Great seats are still available for both games at the UPMC Health Plan Ice Rink at the Cambria County War Memorial. Call 536-5156, or visit www.johnstownchiefs.com to get yours today!
