YPSILANTI, Mich. (EMUEagles.com) — Ninth-year Eastern Michigan University Head Football Coach Chris Creighton only wants two things when his team takes the field for its game against Eastern Kentucky University Friday, Sept. 2: to win the game, and to see as many EMU students in the stands as possible.
While Creighton has already been working on the first portion, he is announcing today, Aug. 31, that he is willing to go all in to help fill the stands with our students.
Creighton has officially issued the #CreightonPizzaChallenge, and the rules are simple - If the student section is full for EMU's first game against EKU, then he is prepared to purchase and award 250 gift cards, good for a free pizza to Little Caesar's in Ypsilanti, to randomly drawn student winners who attended the game and post a picture on social media using #EMUGameday.
