Let's DU Drinks: Kickoff
Join us at Drake Stadium as the Bulldogs kick off their defense of back-to-back Pioneer League titles—and help us celebrate the 100th anniversary of this iconic venue! It’s the start of an exciting new chapter with the debut of head coach Joe Woodley, the first college football of the season in Iowa and post-game fireworks lighting up the Des Moines sky. Your registration includes a game ticket plus two drink tickets in a lively, gathering area on the stadium patio. Mingle with alumni and friends, soak in views of the action below, and toast to the start of an exciting season!
