TROY, Alabama – It's hard to believe, but Troy wraps the 2017 home schedule on Friday, Nov. 24, against Texas State on Senior Day at The Vet. Kickoff between the Trojans and Bobcats is set for 3 p.m.
Trojan Nation has packed The Vet with record numbers this season and because of that we say thank you with Black Friday prices at the ticket booth, at the concession stands and on Troy merchandise as Troy puts a bow in the 2017 home campaign.
General admission tickets are just $5 and reserved seats just $10 for the game, while fans can purchase a $5 combo at the concession stand that includes either a hot dog or hamburger and a drink. Additionally, the ScreenTech Stadium Store will have a Buy One, Get One Free sale on all Troy merchandise at the game.
