“We are thrilled that so many Husky fans have decided to join us in Charlotte for the Meineke Car Care Bowl,” says UConn Director of Athletics Jeffrey Hathaway. “Charlotte is a wonderful city and I know that all UConn fans will enjoy themselves at the bowl.
“UConn fans are reminded that there is still plenty of time to purchase tickets and come to the game. For those who can’t attend the game in person, we remind you that you can purchase tickets and then donate them back to UConn so we can give them to military personnel and underprivileged groups in the Charlotte area.”
Tickets can be purchased by logging on to . Both tickets for game attendances and donations can be bought at this site.
It is important for Husky fans to purchase tickets from the school’s allotment as it will ensure that they will be seated in the UConn sections and will help send a strong message that UConn fans travel in large numbers to support their team at bowl games. In addition, donations further assist the University in meeting its bowl-mandated ticket obligation, which will better position UConn for future bowl opportunities.
