Starting at 4:30 p.m. and concluding 30 minutes after the conclusion of the men's game, shuttle services will run to help escort fans from the overflow parking lots to the Convocation Center.
We will be experiencing a high volume of traffic due to Spirit Night and a recruiting event in association with the games. We encourage fans who utilize general parking on basketball game days to use the overflow parking lots and shuttle services.

UNG students who have a meal plan can now use a meal swipe to redeem food from the concession stand at all home basketball games. Students can use their meal swipe to redeem any of the following combinations: hotdog, potato chips & a fountain drink, nachos & a fountain drink, or a giant soft pretzel with a box of candy and a fountain drink.
