Rice University is pulling out all the stops to create an electric atmosphere at its upcoming football game against North Texas this Saturday night. In an effort to pack the stadium, the university is offering a range of appealing incentives to its students.
Students aged 21 and over can enjoy free 12-ounce beers at a designated stand near the stadium, while all students with a valid ID will receive a voucher for free Ben & Jerry’s ice cream and a complimentary T-shirt (limited to the first 500 students). Additionally, students can take advantage of a $15 voucher to be used at one of the two food trucks that will be on site.
The university initially announced these perks in a post, but the promotions are confirmed to still be in place for the game.
Beyond the individual benefits, Rice is also fostering a spirit of competition among its residential colleges. The college with the highest game attendance will be rewarded with a $500 gift card to a local grocery store and a speaker, further incentivizing students to show their support.
This game holds particular significance for the Rice Owls, as they currently stand at 5-5 for the season. A victory against North Texas would make them eligible for a bowl game, adding even more excitement to the matchup. The team is currently playing its fourth consecutive home game and will be looking to improve on their 1-2 record from the previous three games.
However, securing the crucial sixth win of the season will be no easy task, as they face a formidable North Texas team with an impressive 9-1 record and a four-game winning streak. North Texas’s only loss came against South Florida, who Rice will face on the road the following week.
Rice hopes that the enhanced student incentives and a lively home crowd will give them the edge they need to overcome North Texas and achieve their goal of bowl game eligibility. The game promises to be an exciting event, with the university going the extra mile to create a memorable experience for its students and fans.
