ATLANTA-With
interest in Georgia State basketball at an all-time high, Georgia State
marketing has announced its 10K Challenge, with a goal of having more than
10,000 students watch the Panthers play at home this season.
The goal is to garner support through a contract (“pledge”)
system that challenges each student that signs up to attend a minimum of 10 home
games to help reach the 10,000 goal and make the GSU Sports Arena one of the
toughest places to play in college basketball. Students will sign-up at
various events from November 1, 2012 until the November 26, 2012 game against
East Carolina, the last game to sign up and still attend 10 games.
Students can sign-up at the following events:
Tuesday/Thursday Plaza table (November 1-15)
Basketball – Panther Prowl (November 9)
Panther Nation at Atlantic Station (November 1)
All home basketball games leading up to November
26th (Outdoor table, Concourse Table)
Residence Life Night (November 26)
Final Football Game – Concourse Table and Tents
(November 3)
Panther Mania Tailgate – Deb Robbe (November 4)
Remote set up at Dorms on Game Days leading up
to November 26
The first 1000 students to
sign-up will receive one of the following: a t-shirt, hoodie, sling bag, or be entered for a chance
to win up to $10,000 throughout the season. If the group hits the goal of
10,000 attendees by Feb. 13, every member will be invited to a party to
celebrate at the final home game of the season against Northeastern on Feb. 27.
