Game-Day Reminders

Here are some important things to know as you travel to Emery Gymnasium:

  • Parking is free and plentiful! The later you arrive, the further away it will be from the gym; however, you don’t have to worry about paying

  • Doors to the game open at 6 PM, one (1) hour before tip-off

  • Tickets can be purchased at the door; while we highly recommend buying online in advance, it’s not the only option

  • Your tickets don’t correspond to a certain seat number; you can sit as close to or as far away from the action as you want. The earlier you get to the gym, however, the better spot you’re likely to have.

  • There will be concessions for sale!

And of course, we have this happy disclaimer for you:

For the protection of the player and fans, and in the spirit of good sportsmanship please refrain from fighting or throwing objects at fellow fans or players. Profanity and racial slurs are prohibited. We would like to remind you that any spectator going onto the court, attempting to go on the court, or interrupting play in any manner will be ejected from the game and is subject to arrest. Smoking, e-cigarettes, vaping, and alcohol are also prohibited. If at any time you see any violations of any of these guidelines, please report the incident to your nearest usher, security guard, or the Firebirds front table located in the main lobby.

Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions; we’re always available and happy to help!

See you tomorrow,

-Tex
