ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — The New Mexico Lobos host New Mexico State in the 110th version of the Rio Grande Rivalry.  New Mexico leads the all-time series 71-33-5.  The game will officially kickoff at 2:38 p.m.  Below are all the important links to let you enjoy the game, whether you are making the trip to Dreamstyle Stadium, following along on social media, watching on The Mountain West Network outside of the AT&T Sports Footprint or listening to Robert Portnoy.

BUYING TICKETS & COMING TO THE GAME
Information on purchasing tickets can be found at www.golobos.com/tickets, and buy tickets to this game, click here.  Additionally, there are two specials going on for this game, a two-pack of New Mexico State and the Homecoming game vs. Hawai’i, and a special promo code that’s good for the rest of the season.

On Saturday, the Ticket Office will open four hours prior to the game.  Fans wanting to purchase tickets on Saturday for the Lobo football game with New Mexico State can do so at the Ticket Office in Dreamstyle Arena, or at Dreamstyle Stadium’s Northeast Ticket Offices starting at noon.  Fans getting tickets closer to game time should use the Northwest Corner ticket booths, as there are more windows, which means shorter lines, but this year fans should really get their tickets online to get our online discount!  Fans can buy online and then have their tickets sent to their phones and just scan it in.

Fans should know that last game, more than 50% of the fans that entered the stadium did so in the Northwest entrance.  Fans can avoid lines by going to the Northeast entrance, Gate 3, or the Southwest entrance.

Check out our Game Day Central page with plenty of links to maps and policies, including what you can and cannot do or bring to the stadium, including our bag check policies (we will not be using scanners, but will check bags).  All of that is located on our Game Day Central page.

In addition, here is the complete stadium map with shows were many of the new amenities are located.

Once again beer and wine will be available throughout the stadium.  Click here to read up on UNM’s policies for the purchase of beer and wine.

PROMOTIONS

• Nike N7 Native American Heritage Day

As the Lobos host in-state rival New Mexico State, we celebrate the state’s American Indian Heritage.

• Rio Grande Rivalry & Red Rally

The rivalry returns to Albuquerque!  Don’t miss all the action as UNM looks to make it six out of eight against the Aggies.  To get ready for the game, hit up Red Rally on Thursday night at Johnson Field when the team hosts a university sponsored pep rally with music, the Lobo Band, and the traditional lighting of the Aggie!  Come watching it burn is a hot way to start rivalry weekend. 

THE ALL NEW HOWL ZONE  (IT’S FREE!!!!)
The Howl Zone opens at noon in the north end of the West lot.  We learned that many fans didn’t know that it’s free to enter the Howl Zone … so yeah, it’s free.  Many Lobo fans want that tailgating experience, without having to schlep coolers and grills and all that can entail … and that’s why we have the Howl Zone!  It’s a great place to tailgate with others without the hassle, and it makes tailgating a community experience.  

This Saturday’s featured musical act is Hicks and Fowler, local Albuquerque band that is very popular in the ABQ music scene.  The four-piece can play funk, indie and alternative, and they’ve been known to drop in a little “Easy Like Sunday Morning” on occasion as well.  It’s the perfect soundtrack to a great day of tailgating in the Howl Zone.

The three food trucks of the game will be STUFFED LUST, sopapillas made from fresh locally sourced ingredients, SANCHEZ TACOS, the best Mexican food in the South Valley, and FUDDRUCKERS, World’s greatest hamburgers along with ALBERTSONS.

Our on-site brewery is the RIO BRAVO BREWING COMPANY, and their portable brewery/patio seating also provides the perfect backdrop for the launch of UNM’s newest beer, Lobo Louie IPA.
