KHON feature on the Warriors

Hoping ticket discounts and promotions will help fill the stadium, UH Associate AD John McNamara said:
"We have our family fun pack which offers great discounts for families, we have a group discount plan for 20 or more folks who want to bring a big group out, some great savings there, we have half off for the military, half off for UH Alumni Association members." (KHON)

KHON Note: "Oceanic Time Warner Cable and KFVE are offering five home games in high definition for Pay-Per-View customers including the season opener at $55 for Oahu customers and $27.50 for neighbor island residents. Oceanic's full package features nine football games including road games at Washington State, Idaho, Nevada and San Jose State, along with several volleyball matches and three men's basketball games. For O'ahu cable customers, the PPV package price is $400 for renewals and $480 for new purchases."

About the PPV option for fans, McNamara said:
"We want folks at the stadium but if you can't be for whatever reason you have great alternatives." (KHON)

About how Oceanic will offer streaming video of games for $12 per football game, McNamara said:
"Any fan throughout the world can go to Oceanic's streaming site and basically watch the game live along with everybody else here in the state." (KHON)

About opening the lower parking lot at 1:30pm, Aloha Stadium manager Scott Chan said:
"They wanted us to try and help them find other ways to enhance the experience for the guests that come through games one of the ways would be through the tailgate that we have here at Aloha Stadium." (KHON)

KHON Note: "That's five-and-a-half hours of tailgating. Turnstiles open at 4 P.M. three hours before kickoff. Several bus companies are offering express shuttle service. Added incentives to get people in the house."
