April 08, 2003 | Cowboy Football
To get the fans in the spirit, the OSU Alumni Association and the OSU POSSE have planned record-setting pep rally and pre-game events.
"We are expecting thousands of fans to attend both the pep rally on December 29 and the pre-game party on December 30," said Larry Shell, Alumni Association Associate Executive Director. "They are both going to be festive events for the entire family, featuring the OSU Pep Band, Cheer and Pom Squads, plus Pistol Pete and 5,000-plus screaming OSU fans, alumni and students."
The pep rally will be held in San Antonio's Travis Park at 4:30 p.m. on December 29.
Admission to the pep rally is free.
The OSU pre-game party is being held in the Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center from 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. on Tuesday, December 30.
The pre-game party will include a Mexican Buffet and Cowboy souvenirs.
The convention center is just across the street from the Alamo Bowl and all fans will be able to simply walk to the game after their meal,i Shell said.
The Alumni Association anticipates a pre-game party sellout, Shell added.
"We're advising everyone to order pre-game party tickets now," he said.
Tickets for the pre-game party are $30.
OSU fans wishing to purchase tickets to the pre-game party need to order tickets by December 19 by calling 1-888-678-5249.
Fans are advised to arrive early to both events in order to avoid traffic backups.
For those fans who would like to make travel arrangements through OSU, call the OSU Bowl Hotline at 1-888-678-5249.
The hotline will be staffed from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. until Friday, December 19.
