From Club release:

NASHVILLE (September 13, 2018) – With millions fleeing the potential effects of Hurricane Florence as it bears down on the Eastern Seaboard, Nashville Soccer Club will be offering evacuees free tickets to its two home games next week.

Anyone that presents a current North Carolina, South Carolina or Virginia ID to the First Tennessee Park box office on gameday for Nashville SC’s next two home games, against Tampa Bay Rowdies on Tuesday, September 18 and Charleston Battery on Saturday, September 22, will be given a free ticket to the match.

“Our thoughts are with those who have been affected by the storms along the East Coast,” said Nashville SC CEO Court Jeske. “Sports can be a unifying experience in times of crisis, and while a soccer game is unimportant compared to a life-threatening storm, we hope a couple of hours of distraction and fun will allow for an escape from the realities of evacuating a home.”

Both of Nashville SC’s games next week will kickoff at 7:30 p.m. CST.

This is a cool and good idea. A little good deed never hurt anyone, right? Also a little potential bonus for Battery fans who were contemplating making the trip but didn’t want to shell out for tickets.
