Tailgating for Kent State Home Opener Under Way

Raffles, prize packs and free food available before Kent State takes on Towson University

Many of the new businesses moving into downtown Kent this fall are joining AMETEK and Kent State University in a pre-game tailgating party outside Dix Stadium this afternoon.

Kent State takes on Towson University at 7 p.m. tonight to mark the football home opener.

On the field, a pregame ceremony will have officials from developer Fairmount Properties hand over the keys to AMETEK's new building downtown. Fireworks will follow the 7 p.m. football game.
