Promotions Schedule, New Concession Items Announced for Temple Basketball Season

11.9.16 | Men's Basketball

PHILADELPHIA – In conjunction with its 20th Anniversary Season, the Liacouras Center and Temple Athletics have announced changes to its concession area and a full schedule of exciting promotions for the 2016-17 Owls men's basketball season.

Starting with Temple's opening game Friday, Nov. 11 against Philadelphia Big 5 rival La Salle, fans will be able to indulge at two new concession locations with Philadelphia favorite, Tony Luke's, opening up a cheesesteak stand at Section 106 and Pita Chip launching a mobile vendor stand. In addition, the Liacouras Center will be introducing new boneless wings (Jerk, BBQ, Mild) at concession stands and Miller Lite will also be opening a brand new bar called the "Owl's Nest" within the arena.  

Temple's promotion schedule starts with the opener as the first 4,000 fans to enter the Liacouras Center will receive a free Temple Basketball schedule magnet.  Kids ages 14 and under can come onto the court and score a basket following the Tulsa game (Jan. 14), while the always popular Birthday celebration for Hooter the Owl will take place at the USF Game (Feb. 5).  In addition, the annual White Out (UConn-Feb. 19) and Cherry Out (UCF-Feb. 22) will also be held during the season.

See below for the full promotion schedule.  Additional promotions will be added throughout the season.  For more information on the concession area visit liacourascenter.com/concessions.
