October 27, 2017 – The Charlotte Hornets and Bank of America this season will once again team up to recognize a military member or veteran at one Hornets home game per month through the Yellow Ribbon Program. The season’s first recipient, Captain Carl Gamble, USAF, Ret., will be honored during Sunday’s game against the Orlando Magic. Yellow Ribbon recipients are recognized prior to the national anthem and during an on-court presentation at halftime and given six tickets to the game. In addition, the Hornets make a $1,000 donation to his or her charity of choice.
“The Charlotte Hornets and Bank of America are pleased to once again honor military members and veterans for their service to our country this season,” said Hornets Sports & Entertainment President & COO Fred Whitfield.
