EVANSVILLE, Ind. – The University of Evansville Athletics Department and Evansville Regional Airport held a press conference earlier today to announce a new and exciting partnership.
Evansville Regional Airport will sponsor the first two games of the 2018-19 men's basketball season, which will be known as "EVV Take-Off Weekend." In conjunction with Allegiant, a half-time contest-promotion will be held at UE's games on November 15 and 18 that will include a free four-person flight package given out during each game.
To enter, fans will purchase paper airplanes that day at the Ford Center to throw on the basketball court, and one lucky fan at each game will win the flight package for four from Allegiant.
