In anxious anticipation of the Rhinos upcoming home USL Playoff game this Saturday at Capelli Sport Stadium, the Rochester Rhinos will be attempting a second kick over the Genesee River, this time at Dinosaur Bar-B-Que. New corporate partner. New location. New player. Can we do it again??

The kick will take place at 2pm on Thursday with goalkeeper Kyle Morton attempting this impressive feat from the sidewalk from Court Street adjacent to Dinosaur Bar-B-Que. Members of the media and fans are more than welcome to attend this feat. The Rhinos staff will begin to arrive at around 1:30pm to coordinate.

The Rochester Rhinos attempted a similar kick during last season's playoff campaign. Last year, Rhinos GK Adam Grinwis (now with Saint Louis FC) attempted a Genesee River Kick from the Genesee Brew House. Adam was successful in 2 of his 3 kicks from various bridge locations, including one from the Brew House rooftop!

The 4th-seeded Rhinos begin their run to the USL Cup Saturday, October 21st, as we face the 5th-seeded Charlotte Independence. Kickoff at Capelli Sport Stadium is set for 6:05 p.m. Gates open at 4:45PM, where fans can enjoy $2 Genesee happy hour drafts until 15 minutes before kickoff! We're also offering FREE PARKING and encourage all fans to wear green.

Playoff tickets are now available by visiting the box office, calling 585-454-KICK, or visiting RhinosSoccer.com.
