CSU Allowing Students to Bring Guest in Free to Basketball Games

Cleveland State students attending select Viking basketball games during the remainder of the 2009-10 season will be permitted to bring one free guest to games under a change in the student ticket policy that will go into affect beginning with the Sunday afternoon (Jan. 24) men's basketball game against Milwaukee.

Coined the "And One" program, current CSU students with a valid Viking card will be able to bring one family member or friend for free to several of the remaining basketball games this year. The program is designed to encourage greater particpation in CSU athletic events by its student body while also rewarding the students for their support.

"Our students are some of our best supporters and the team gets a lot of energy from the student section," CSU Director of Athletics Lee Reed said. "By allowing our students to bring a friend or family member to a game, we are both thanking them for their support while also helping to build greater support for the Vikings."
