Rochester faces the Providence Bruins in an Eastern Conference matchup.
ROCHESTER, N.Y. — The Rochester Americans announced on Monday the team will host Irish Night, presented by DDS Companies, in honor of St. Patrick’s Day on Friday, March 9 when the team plays host to the Providence Bruins at the Blue Cross Arena.
Start your St. Patrick’s Day festivities off right with the Amerks, who again will wear special Irish-themed jerseys for the game that will be auctioned off in the main concourse to benefit the St. Patrick’s Day Committee.
Winners will receive the “jerseys off the backs” of the players following the game.
Irish Night T-Shirt packages will also be available. For just $30, fans can purchase a specialty St. Patrick’s Day T-shirt, along with one best-available ticket. Additional tickets begin as low as just $14. The packages can be purchased online at www.amerks.com/irish, in person at the Amerks office, or by phone at 1-855-GO-AMERKS (while supplies last).
The Irish Night festivities begin with an Amerks Happy Hour from 6-7 pm in the Genesee Brew House Upper Atrium Bar, where fans ages 21 and over can enjoy Genesee and Genesee Light drafts for just $2. There also will be live music from the band “1916” during Happy Hour and the first intermission. Formed as an acoustic pub act in 2006, the band 1916 has “transformed into the hardest hitting Irish Rock band this side of Dublin!” The game will feature Irish music, Irish Dancers, and Irish-themed Mystery Pucks, autographed by various Amerks players, available for $10 in the upper concourse.
