Air Force and Army announce Commander's Classic

[BBQ-Devil]

This should be a great time! I wonder if the entire cadet wing will be in attendance?

"Air Force Athletics is excited to announce the Lockheed Martin Commanders’ Classic where the Air Force vs. Army football games in 2021 and 2022 will be played at Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas, new home of the Texas Rangers. The game dates are set for Nov. 6, 2021 and Nov. 5, 2022 with the 2021 matchup being the first-ever football game in the venue.

Playing in a brand-new state-of-the-art stadium will be an incredible experience for Air Force Football, our cadet-athletes and our fans alike. Globe Life Field will also present a myriad of increased amenities, food & beverage options and premium seating in a world-class venue. Additionally, Texas is a rich recruiting area for Air Force and playing a game in the state is important for us to maintain excellence in athletics.:

Tickets for the Commander’s Classic will be sold as single game tickets and can be bought in the Air Force section through the Air Force ticket office HERE.

Any word if the entire cadet wing will be travelling to TX for the game? Who will be the "home" team?

I'm in...

Would like to know if the entire cadet wing will travel since it's ~700 miles from the Falcon nest. It would be a bonus to get a chance to see our cadets.

Sorry, was making an airbnb joke.

No issue with it.. would love to meet you when you come to town though if possible.

Cool! It might be a couple of us. I'll be the guy in the Army hat, rooting for both and will buy an extra round if Army wins.

Exciting.

Will wait and see if NTUSAFAPC will try to sit together, and in the meantime will go on my own fact finding mission if we know anyone that we can get ourselves invited to a box. Used to have a connection to American Airlines center, and scored anything that ended with ....on Ice! or was geared for 12 and unders, so i'm not holding my breath for invite for these games! Whether DD can make it or not, she's on her own for the game. Love to see her, but she'll probably want to sit with other Cadets and i'll have a one on one with her laundry.

Agreed! We have a large family contingent that plans to meet up down there for the game from a couple of different states. It was planned the moment the game was announced. Cannot wait!

I plan to come but want to wait and see if the cadet wing will attend before making final plans.

Just spoke to someone at USAFA and they said they usually send a “contingent” but probably not the entire cadet wing
