Gates open to the public at 4:30 p.m., when Happy Hour begins with discounted prices on food and drinks until 5:30 p.m. Pregame festivities will include a giant American flag stretched over the field as St. Patrick School students sing the national anthem. Fans will also witness 1,500 balloons launched into the sky, a five-plane flyover by the Kent State School of Aeronautics and fireworks. The game ball will then be presented by three skydivers.
