Milwaukee Admirals President Jon Greenberg announced today that the team will host a club hockey game between the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee and Marquette University on Friday, Oct. 28, at 7 p.m. at the UW-Milwaukee Panther Arena.
The club game will take place the night before the Admirals play their first game at Panther Arena since the 1986-87 season when the building was called the MECCA.
Tickets for the UWM-Marquette game are just $10 and can be purchased at the Kilbourn Avenue box office the night of the game. Those with tickets for the Ads home opener the following night can get into the club game for free.
Seating is general admission, and there will be concession stands open to sample many of the new offerings of the Panther Arena. Fans can also check out the brand new arena team store, that features merchandise from the Admirals, as well as the other building tenants in UWM Men’s Basketball, and Milwaukee Wave Soccer.
The UWM-Marquette game will be the second public event that the Admirals will host prior to their opener. The team will have an open skate/viewing party this Wednesday, Oct. 19 beginning at 6 p.m. where fans can skate on the Panther Arena ice and watch the Ads as they travel to Chicago to take on the Wolves at 7 p.m.
