College Football "Maritime Industry Day"

College football is here! Kicking off the 2007 University of Houston football home season is Champions Day on Sept. 22 @ 3:30pm when the Cougars play host to Colorado State. A team that has been to six bowl games since 1999 and won three conference titles during that span. The Cougars will celebrate their 2006 Conference USA Football Conference Championship and honor all UH champions. Band Day 2007 will also be held during half time the football home opener.

This should be a great game match up and with pre-game tailgating should provide a great early fall "family outing". The half time special Band Day 2007 will also be most entertaining. Houston features a wide open and innovative offense.

Using my negotiation skills and calling in a few favors, I set up a special discounted price of only $5 per ticket! That’s not a typo! This way you can bring all the kids! Please call Mike Cannon, UH ticket sales, direct at 713-743-8558 to order your tickets. For additional details on  "Maritime Industry Day"  please see link:
