Let’s fill the stadium.
Attention all alumni of North Cobb High School and Kennesaw Mountain High School — show your spirit, support your high school – plan on attending the Chick Fil A Civil War Classic to be played at KSU’s Fifth Third Bank Stadium, September 20. This will be the first ever football game will be played in the stadium and we have a chance to sell this out. Kick-off is 7:30.
Tickets are $7 each and are available at North Cobb High School or Kennesaw Mountain High School (at the admin office) or at Chick-fil-A at Acworth/Hwy 41 and the Chick-fil-A at Brookstone location, the Fifth/Third Bank stadium ticket box office, and also online at www.ticketalternative.com . Tickets will be available the night of the game at the gate for $10.00 each.
The stadium seats 8000 – the Bright Side knows there are at least 8,000 alumni from the two schools living within shouting distance of the stadium. Show your spirit, fill the seats and root for your home team.
Kennesaw Mayor Mark Matthews, a North Cobb High School graduate, pitched the idea to Dr. Phillip Page, principal of NCHS and Dr. Kevin Daniel, principal of KMHS over the summer. Both were so excited at the idea of bringing the entire community together in a venue that they are fortunate to have in their own backyard. “The Civil War Classic at KSU is a great opportunity to not only showcase two local football programs but two school communities that call the Kennesaw area home.
The Civil War Classic couldn’t be a reality without the many volunteers and corporate sponsors it takes to make it happen. In addition to Chick-fil-A’s support since the rivalry began, special thanks go out to Superior Plumbing and LGE Community Credit Union for their support as Gold Level sponsors. “This is my favorite event of the year. No matter the record, people show up to support the kids and community at this game. It is always a fun night” says Chick-fil-A of Acworth and Brookstone Operator, Andy Duncan.
