“We are so excited to kick off another great season of the ultimate in pre-game entertainment, the Roadrunner Nation Tailgate events,” said Chuck Clark, Alumni Association board president (class of 1994). “This season’s event lineup presents a changing menu of delicious tailgating food, plenty of cold drinks and a variety of featured guests for all the UTSA Roadrunner home games.”

The UTSA Alumni Association is seeking volunteers to help staff the tailgating events. Volunteering is a great way to meet new people, receive volunteer hours, and get FREE food and drinks! As an extra thanks, volunteers who help at registration will also get one free ticket to the game. Visit the UTSA Alumni Association website for more information and to sign up.
