As professional boxing around these parts becomes more and more of a rarity fans of the “Sweet Science” here in North Texas are left with limited options to get their fight fix. Last month, fans were all abuzz as the annual Fight Night at Quick Trip Park was slated to feature a number of young local prospects. Unfortunately for the evening’s promoters Mother Nature conspired against them and the card was rained out.
Well, fight fans we have some good news to report. The 4th Annual Fight Night at Quick Trip Park will take place this Friday, October 14. Best of all, and something that has been a genius idea for this promotion, the general admittance tickets are free. Yes, you read that correctly, free. In fact, if you go to the Grand Prairie Air Hogs website you can print off a voucher that is good for free general admission for up to four guests. You can’t beat that kind of deal for some sweet professional boxing.
Now, the usual disclaimer, the free tickets are only general admission. But, if you want to upgrade to reserve seating it’s not going to cost you much at all. In fact reserved seating prices are only $5, $10, or, get this, $25 for VIP field seating. Now, you tell me where you can find VIP floor seating for only $25.
