SDSU and Fleet Week San Diego Go the Extra Yard to Provide Military Discount Tickets

SAN DIEGO, Aug. 2, 2016 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Fleet Week San Diego and SDSU Athletics have teamed to once again provide significantly discounted tickets (in select areas) to all SDSU Football home games in 2016—just $8 and available at all MWR/MCCS ticket offices. Each home game will honor a branch of the military, including the Fleet Week Football Classic on Saturday, September 10, SDSU vs. Cal.

"With the strong presence of the military in San Diego, San Diego State University is thrilled to once again partner on the Aztec Football military voucher program, inviting our local military to take in a great product on the field, for a discounted price. We thank our military for their service and hope they will enjoy cheering on what looks to be a very exciting football season," said Jim Sterk, Director of Athletics, San Diego State University.

Part of an ongoing partnership between SDSU Athletics and the San Diego Fleet Week Foundation, a portion of the sale of each voucher goes to support Fleet Week in it's mission to honor and celebrate the men and women of the military through public events. These events are intended to promote alliances that support our heroes and express gratitude for their service and sacrifice.

"We so appreciate SDSU Athletics' support of Fleet Week San Diego over the years, and hope many military will take advantage of this offer for these fantastic seats," said Brian Sack, Executive Director of the San Diego Fleet Week Foundation.
