4. REMEMBER: SU's Otto's Fall Reading Kickoff 2026 - Football Tickets

Participating educators and students are invited to the JMA Wireless Dome for the Syracuse Orange v. the SMU Mustangs football game on Saturday, October 31, 2026. The game time is not yet published but is typically determined and added to the online schedule, as well as sent to ticket holders, about 10 days before the game. We know that because the game is on Halloween, game time may determine whether students and their families are interested in attending. In the past, tickets have not sold out before the game time is announced and will be available to purchase (while supplies last) up until the day before the game, for those making last minute decisions.

Each participating student, teacher, and school staff member is eligible to claim one complimentary ticket to the game (thanks to our friends at Visions Federal Credit Union) with the purchase of at least one discounted ticket. As mentioned on the Reading Kickoff website, there are no minimums or set parameters for reading participation – educators and staff can set goals for their classroom or school, but every student who participated in any way is eligible to claim their free ticket!

Please send ticket instructions to participating students or their families/guardians, and other participating staff, so they can purchase tickets using their own email address.

Ticket Instructions:

You must purchase at least 1 discounted ticket to receive the complimentary student/educator ticket. There is only 1 complimentary ticket per order.

If a family/group has multiple participating educators and/or students, or has trouble processing ticket orders, please have them contact athsales@syr.edu for assistance (be sure to mention it’s for Otto’s Reading Kickoff).
Tickets are available until October 30 or while supplies last.
All tickets for the Dome are now fully digital so no tickets will be sent via mail or available to print. You can learn more about mobile ticketing at https://cuse.com/feature/mobile_ticketing.
