Top 3 reasons to get excited for Stadium Series

#2 College Football Meets Hockey

Another reason to get pumped for the Stadium Series this year besides getting to see our Capitals play is that if you’re going to the game, expect a college football like atmosphere. The game will be played at Carter Finley Stadium on the campus of North Carolina State. The stadium is across the way from the Hurricanes arena which also houses the Wolfpack basketball team.

In one of the end zones, some lucky students at NC State will get to watch the game from the field level, creating a student section like atmosphere. If you’ve been to those high school or college games where the crowd from both sides are into it, expect that kind of scene on Saturday night as numerous Capitals fans will make this trip.

The parking lots open at 2 with the drop of the puck taking place at 8 p.m. There will be tailgates from the traditional ones to the Truly Hard Seltzer NHL Pre Game over at the PNC Arena East 1000 Parking Lot. If you have a ticket to the game you have access to the Pre Game.

Sometimes the tailgates are more fun than the game but I’m sure the game will be just as fun as long as the Caps BRING IT.
