Last season UNC football instituted a “Seats for Service” program that allowed fans to purchase $10 tickets for military members and their families. The idea was to give some of these Tar Heel fans a chance they don’t get very often–watching their team play between the pines at Kenan Stadium.
Following a terrific response to the program, the university has expanded the “Seats for Service” initiative for 2016.
The deal is also now open for active service members including the National Guard and Reserves, veterans, police officers, fire fighters, EMS providers and other first responders.
Children of fallen service members, police, fire and emergency responders will also be part of the program.
“For several years Carolina Athletics has partnered with the University of North Carolina ROTC units and the Atlantic Coast Conference to honor service members as part of our Military Appreciation Day activities,” says Senior Associate Athletic Director Rick Steinbacher.
“We’ve welcomed back to Kenan Stadium former Carolina student-athletes who have gone on to exemplary military careers as well as current students who are veterans and active duty service personnel,” he continued. “The Seats for Service campaign is a way for Carolina fans to provide memorable game day experiences for some of our bravest Tar Heels who serve us both and home and abroad.”
