Auggie football at Metrodome Saturday

METRODOME SITE (MSFC)

MINNEAPOLIS -- Augsburg College will host Bethel University in the Auggies' final “home” football game of the season on Saturday (11/12) at 1 p.m. at the Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome in Minneapolis.

Limited parking is available in the Metrodome upper lot, adjacent to the Vikings' ticket office. Lot entrance is off of 11th Avenue South, near the intersection with 5th Street South. There is also ample parking (payment required) in ramps and lots around the Metrodome.

Tickets will be sold at Gate D (adjacent to the South end of the parking lot) starting at 11:30 a.m. on Saturday. Entry gates will also open at 11:30 a.m. Pass gate is also at Gate D.

Tickets will be handled just like a regular Augsburg home game. Tickets are $7 for adults, $3 for students. Augsburg, A-Club and MIAC passes will be accepted. All Augsburg students, faculty and staff get into any Augsburg regular-season home game free with ID. Augsburg students, faculty and staff MUST bring their student/staff ID with them in order to receive free admission. There will be no presale of tickets prior to the game.

All fan seating will be on the east site (football press box side), with Augsburg seating in Sections 109-113 and Bethel seating in Sections 104-108 (click here for Metrodome seating chart).

If you can't make it to the game, you can follow the action live online, through Augsburg's live webcast (Stretch Internet -- Augsburg GameCentral portal).

Augsburg will be making its 24th football appearance at the Metrodome since 1983, and Saturday's game will be the sixth time Augsburg and Bethel have met at the Metrodome. The Auggies have a 8-15 record in games played at the Metrodome and a 9-15 record all-time in games played indoors. Augsburg also won an NCAA Division III playoff game over Concordia-Moorhead at the Fargodome in Fargo, N.D., in 1997.
