Co-Lin announces ticket plans for 2020 football season

WESSON – Copiah-Lincoln Community College has announced plans for the distribution of tickets to the Wolf Pack's three home football games.

A limited number of fans will be allowed to attend each game as required by Mississippi Governor Tate Reeves Executive Order 1519 signed on Aug. 20. The order limits attendance to 25 percent of stadium capacity, in addition to other restrictions, to help control the spread of COVID-19.

In accordance with Executive Order 1519, 1,250 fans will be allowed to attend each home game in Stone Stadium. This number does not include members of the football team, coaches, and support staff; cheerleaders; or credentialed game-day workers.

Co-Lin will reserve an allotment of tickets for family members of the football team, cheerleaders, and Blue Wave Show Band. There will be an allotment of tickets for Co-Lin students and employees with valid college ID. Information about the distribution of those tickets will be communicated by campus email and must be reserved by Wednesday at noon prior to the game.

The remaining tickets under the 1,250 capacity will be on sale on a first-come, first-served basis for $10 each regardless of age. These tickets can be purchased online at colin.ticketleap.com.

Mississippi High School Activities Association (MHSAA) and Mississippi Association of Independent Schools (MAIS) passes will be accepted provided the pass holder calls the college's Athletic Department at 601.643.8464 before Wednesday at noon. Only one person will be admitted per pass. Pass and valid ID must be presented at the gate.
