Flyer fans looking for something to do while axiously awaiting kickoff before the Flyer football games should check out the hospitality tent in the B-West parking lot near the UD Arena.

The tent is open to everyone from 11am until the kickoff at 1pm. For just a $5 dollar admission you get a variety of perks. The grill will be running with hot dogs and hamburgers for everyone. And fans can quench their thirst with a pop or, for the over 21 crowd, alcohol is available for purchase as well.

Also, the Flyer Faithful should keep an eye out for the door prizes that will be handed out. While waiting for the kickoff, fans are encouraged to play a game of cornhole and enjoy performances by the Pride of Dayton Marching Band and the Flyer Cheerleaders. You may even see Rudy!

The tent proved to be a big hit on it's first Saturday before the Urbana game. Families and fans gathered around big round tables to enjoy their food and discuss the outlook of the game.

"We think it's awesome. The food was wonderful! We hope you do it all the time!" said Jim and Gail Drummer.

Be sure to check out the tent again this Saturday before the Central State game.
