Chamber offers discounted BU-Wake Forest tickets
The Greater Waco Chamber of Commerce has announced that it and Baylor University are teaming up to make tickets to the first home football game, Baylor vs. Wake Forest, on Aug. 28 available for $20.
“We want to fill the stands for this televised game and show our support for the new season,” said Steve Smith, senior vice president of sports and special events for the Chamber.
Tickets may be purchased beginning Tuesday through Aug. 26 at the chamber offices at 101 S. Third St. or online at WacoWeDoSports.com. Enter the code “beatwake” to receive the discount.
In addition, Bear Force One will sell tickets Friday at the Hewitt Drive H-E-B in Woodway at the group rate of $20 each. The H-E-B promotion will be sponsored by the chamber, H-E-B and Bear Force One.
All purchases made through the chamber or at the H-E-B Friday also will receive a coupon for a free “Gold Rush” T-shirt that can be redeemed at Floyd Casey Stadium on game day only.
Seats for the chamber tickets will be in Sections S and T. When those two sections sell out, tickets will be available in sections U and then V.

$20 for tickets to see Baylor?
It will not be long before John Morris will have to give those tickets away.

20 bucks and you call that a discount?????
Sad however that Baylor is still one of the cheaper tickets around while most College teams are costing more than a Pro game!

Only in Waco and only at Baylor would you have to “sell” discount tickets to the first college football game of the year. Pathetic for Baylor to have to basically beg to have people fill up their 50,000 seat stadium.

This message is for the poster “Suc em bears”: It’s a Thursday game you moron! It’s a lot harder to fill up seats on a Thursday than a Saturday. I think it’s a great idea, considering it is a televised game and most people would stay home and watch instead of go to the stadium.
