VAST AND CRICKET BRING YOU THIS WEEKENDS GAMES

(RAPID CITY, SD) – The Rapid City Rush, proud ECHL affiliate of the NHL’s Arizona Coyotes, are geared up for double duty this weekend against the Quad City Mallards. Both games will be played at Premier Home Mortgage Ice in Rushmore Plaza Civic Center on Friday and Saturday, October 21st and 22nd, with both puck drops slated for 7:05 p.m. starts.

Friday’s game is brought to you by Vast Broadband, a long-time corporate partner of the Rapid City Rush who just entered a multi-year agreement with the team. For Friday’s game, the Rush’s red jerseys will make their home debut as they kick off their 3-game regular season series against the Quad City Mallards.

“First off, with regards to the jerseys, I absolutely loved them. The white jerseys at home looked spectacular, and I expect nothing less of the reds that the team will wear on Friday night,” said Weldon Feightner, Vice President of Operations for Vast Broadband. “The experience at a Rush game in Rushmore Plaza Civic Center is always great. We hope with it being Vast Broadband Night on Friday night that the crowd will be even more electric and power the Rush to a big win against the rival Quad City Mallards.”

Saturday’s game, our second-ever “Affiliation Night” with specialty jerseys, is brought to you by Cricket Wireless, the official wireless provider and away game broadcast sponsor of the Rapid City Rush. The Rush specialty jerseys, paying homage to our affiliation with the NHL’s Arizona Coyotes, will be auctioned off following the game. In addition to “Affiliation Night”, “Super Fan” Cameron Hughes will be in attendance, back by popular demand for a third time in Rush history, to help electrify the crowd at Premier Home Mortgage Ice in Rushmore Plaza Civic Center.

“This partnership as just been fantastic. It’s been amazing so far. Both sides mesh really well with this relationship,” said Windy Werner, Sales Manager for Cricket Wireless. “I’m looking forward to everything on Saturday night, but the most important thing I want to see is my five year-old son, Alessandro, drop the puck prior to the start of the game with my Regional Manager, Tanner Foarks.”
