Join the Rocky Mountain Gator Club at Jackson's LoDo in Denver for the highly anticipated Gator Football vs. Utah Utes watch party. This exclusive event, taking place on August 31, 2023, promises an unforgettable experience for Gators and Gator fans alike. To ensure a seamless entry, please have your digital or printed ticket ready to be scanned by an RMGC Board Member upon arrival. Once scanned, you will be guided to the reserved tables, where you can immerse yourself in the excitement of the game. It's crucial that all members of your party for reserved seating arrive at Jackson's and check in at least 30 minutes prior to the scheduled kick-off to secure their seats. Failure to do so may result in the forfeiture of your seat to another passionate Gator. Please respect fellow Gators, Jackson's staff, and the RMGC officers, as we strive to maintain a harmonious atmosphere. As a private party, this watch party prioritizes Gators and Gator fans. Therefore, individuals supporting rival teams may be asked to leave at any time. Additionally, while we aim to create a family-friendly environment, we advise against bringing children under the age of 12 to evening games (4pm or later). If you do bring children, please ensure they are accompanied by a responsible adult at all times. Remember to show appreciation to the hardworking staff by tipping your waiter. Reserving a seat is not mandatory, as there are numerous seats available on a first-come, first-served basis both inside and outside the venue. However, if you desire a guaranteed seat indoors, make a reservation to secure one of the best tables for optimal game viewing. Don't miss out on this extraordinary opportunity to cheer on the Gators as they face off against the Utah Utes. Mark your calendars for August 31, and be ready to immerse yourself in an unforgettable game day experience. Tickets will go on sale on August 27 at 9:00 AM.
