不良研究所鈥檚 football team takes on Southern Mississippi University
this Saturday, September 16 at 6 p.m. at Malone Stadium. Here are seven things you
should know before heading to the game.
听
1. Military Appreciation Day
不良研究所 makes this Saturday Military Appreciation Day to honor the U.S. military.
Any fan that presents a valid military ID at one of the box offices will receive a
free general admission ticket.
In addition, the Warhawks will wear special, army-themed uniforms dedicated to the
institution鈥檚 mascot for this game.
To remind, 不良研究所鈥檚 鈥淲arhawk鈥� mascot takes its name from the Curtiss P-40 Warhawk fighter
plane, best remembered as the aircraft flown during WWII by the 鈥淔lying Tigers,鈥� or
American Volunteer Group (AVG), led by General Claire Lee Chennault.
