Two-for-one tickets are being made available to faculty, staff, students and alumni for games on Sunday, Sept. 29 vs. the Edmonton Eskimos; Monday, Oct. 14 vs. the Toronto Argonauts; and Sunday, Oct. 27 vs. the Winnipeg Blue Bombers. All three games begin at 1 p.m.

Tickets are two for $40 and can be purchased at the Roarrr Store in Jackson Square or Centre Mall, the Ivor Wynne Stadium Box Office and at the concession of Les Prince Field at Saturday's Homecoming football game. You must present your McMaster identification card.

“McMaster's partnership with the Tiger-Cats is an effort to get people excited about Tiger-Cats football,” says Roger Trull, vice-president, University Advancement. “We're trying to get faculty, staff, students and alumni to consider going to games. In return, the Tiger-Cats are going to offer this attractive ticket package for McMaster's people and will donate five per cent of the proceeds from the tickets to student groups on campus.”

Supporting the Tiger-Cats ultimately benefits the University, Trull adds. “We think it is important that the Tiger-Cats thrive in the city because what it good for the city is good for McMaster and what reflects positively on the city, reflects positively on McMaster,” he says.

Tiger-Cats chair and co-owner David MacDonald appreciates McMaster's support. “We know that McMaster has always been a strong football University and Tiger-Cats supporter,” he says, “and we are happy to offer them this special deal on our last three games before the playoffs.”
