Fox Sports Southwest and Texas Rangers continue University Days partnership for sixth season
For the sixth season the Texas Rangers and FOX Sports Southwest are partnering to bring Texas Rangers University Days to Globe Life Park in Arlington.
The discounted ticket promotion gives selected universities in FSSW’s coverage territory the opportunity for fans, students and alumni to attend a special themed “game day” at a Rangers game, designated and promoted by the Rangers and FOX Sports Southwest.
Baylor, University of Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, TCU, Texas Tech, University of Texas and UT-Arlington will participate in 2019. The first University Day is set for TCU, May 20 against Seattle.
Starting Friday, March 1, fans can purchase tickets at texasrangers.com/udays. New this year, all fans who purchase a ticket through this designated link will receive a hat (limited quantities available).
“We look forward to another successful University Days campaign and providing Rangers fans the opportunity to celebrate their school spirit for the sixth consecutive season,” FOX Sports Southwest Senior Vice President/General Manager Steve Simpson said.
The promotion includes reduced ticket prices, a limited edition Texas Rangers cap in the school’s colors and featuring the school’s logo for fans that purchase the special tickets (limited quantities available), on-field pregame participation by the school’s coaches, players or noted alumni, and recognition of the university on FOX Sports Southwest’s live broadcast.
Universities will also be able to use the FOX Sports Southwest Rangers Fan Express VIP luxury bus as part of the designated University Day at Globe Life Park.
“We are proud to be partnering with our great television rightsholder FOX Sports Southwest on this effort. We look forward to hosting seven schools at Globe Life Park this season as part of the University Days program,” Rangers Executive Vice President for Communications John Blake said.
