Hawks to give free tickets to military personnel
All former and active military members can receive up to two free tickets to tomorrow’s Hawks game, the team announced Tuesday.
The Hawks are scheduled to host the Pelicans at 8 p.m. at Philips Arena. Military members can show their military identification at the arena box office for the tickets. The box office will open at 5 p.m. today and beginning at 9:30 a.m. tomorrow.
In addition to the offer, all five branches of the military will be honored throughout the game, including a pregame ceremony with troops stationed at Fort Benning. Also, 92.9 FM radio host Mark Zinno, a three-time deployed veteran, will assist in player introductions that will feature a current Hawks and Philips Arena employee who served in the military along with each starter.
