Limited spots remain for Friday night’s special Roar Tour event at the Hintz Family Alumni Center (Pregame at Hintz) with capacity expected to sell out later this week. Walk-in registrations will be available while space lasts. 

The event, hosted by the Penn State Alumni Association, will feature host LaVar Arrington—two-time All-American linebacker for Penn State and member of the College Football Hall of Fame—the Central PA Tasting Trail, local food favorites, appearances by the Penn State cheerleaders and the Nittany Lion, a VIP lanyard and commemorative pin, and additional giveaways. The Penn State women’s volleyball match will be available to watch at the event, with Alumni Association members able to sign up for an annual pass to B1G+ at a discount.

Arrington will host Pregame at Hintz and appear at Roar Tour events throughout the season, bringing extra energy and insight while sharing his game-day perspective, connecting with fellow Penn Staters, and helping fans get ready for kickoff. As an added bonus, Alumni Association members can attend Arrington’s home-game tailgate—Stix City—for a discount. More details are available on the Alumni Association website.

Roar Tour events, most of which happen at away games, are high-energy gatherings where alumni connect, celebrate, share their Penn State pride, and experience the excitement of game day together. More information on the Roar Tour lineup is available on the Alumni Association’s website. 

Register today for Pregame at Hintz.
