First of Pens Student Rush Games this Thursday

Pittsburgh Penguins Thursday game against the Carolina Hurricanes will mark the first of four "Student Rush" nights at the Mellon Arena.

The Penguins have reserved 600 tickets for this game exclusively for college and high school students to purchase for only $20 with a student ID and will go on sale at 6:30 at Gate 8 box office. There is also a limit of one ticket per student ID.

“Student Rush is a Penguins’ tradition, and it is important for us to continue to reach out to our young fan base,” said team president David Morehouse. “We have sold out 71 games in a row, and our advance sales are strong, so Student Rush ticket availability is limited on a game-by-game basis during the season. But we chose these four games, starting with Thursday against Carolina, to reserve a block of tickets for the students to enjoy Penguins hockey en masse.”

The other three "Student Rush Night" games are:

November 13th (Philadelphia Flyers)
January 20th (Carolina Hurricanes)
March 20th (Los Angeles Kings)
