Wednesday Is Military Appreciation Night; Eagles Offer Military ID Special

November 8, 2010 - Central Hockey League (CHL)
Colorado Eagles News Release


LOVELAND, Colo. - The Colorado Eagles will be honoring our country's military with their annual Military Appreciation Night this Wednesday. For the third year in a row, the team asked its season ticket holders and corporate partners to donate their tickets for the game on Wednesday, Nov. 10 (the day before Veterans Day) at the Budweiser Events Center, as the team fills the arena with military members and their families. The appreciative gesture has again been a great success with all donated tickets being redistributed.

In addition to the military ticket donations, the Eagles will again be wearing special military-themed jerseys when they take on the Rapid City Rush. The game-worn military jerseys will be auctioned off during the team's following home game on Friday, Nov. 12 (proceeds will benefit military veterans in Northern Colorado). This year's special edition jersey will be unveiled that night and on sale at the merchandise counter on the concourse.

The game night will again feature several military-centric details from the off-ice entertainment to special offers for military members from Ovations Food Services. Special food and beverage tokens will be randomly handed out on the concourse to military personnel, and they will also receive 15% off all food and beverages (excluding alcohol) in the Executive Club restaurant on the suite level.

All of the festivities can be seen on Altitude Sports & Entertainment, allowing those that donated their tickets the chance to still see the game.

*Special Offer Extended to Military for Saturday* Due to the popularity -- and success -- of Wednesday night's ticket donations, the Eagles will offer a ticket discount for Saturday night's game against the Mississippi RiverKings for all military members with an ID. Anyone who shows a military ID at either the Budweiser Events Center box office or the Colorado Eagles office in Water Valley can get a ticket for Saturday's game at a special price of just $16 -- all fees included.

Individual tickets for all Eagles home games can be purchased by visiting the Budweiser Events Center box office, calling 1-877-544-TIXX (8499) or online at www.ComcastTix.com. Special group rates are also available by calling the Eagles' office at 970-686-SHOT (7468).
