Under the leadership of Hugh Freeze, Auburn returns to Jordan-Hare Stadium on Saturday, April 8 for the A-Day game. The annual spring game is scheduled to begin a 1PM.
Tickets to attend A-Day in Jordan-Hare Stadium are on sale now through the Auburn Ticket Office for $10 to the general public and free for current Auburn students. Since all $10 seats are general admission, fans are encouraged to purchase tickets in advance to avoid waiting in line on April 8.
