Florida Atlantic Athletics has announced it will offer complimentary football tickets to Saturday’s home game against North Texas “for Florida residents impacted or displaced by recent hurricanes that have affected the state.”
The game at FAU Stadium starts at 7 p.m., and will be nationally televised on ESPN2.

“We extend our deepest condolences to those impacted this week by the devastating weather in our state,” said FAU Vice President and Director of Athletics Brian White. “Our priority has always been to give back to the communities that mean so much to us and we hope that Saturday’s game provides a few hours of normalcy for those impacted.”
