What to know before you head Coastal Carolina’s season opener at Brooks Stadium

CONWAY, S.C. (WMBF) - While it was quiet Friday morning in Conway, we’ll be able to hear the Chanticleers cheer from the beach because tickets for Saturday’s season opener against Army are sold out.

If you’re heading to the game, here are some things you need to know before heading to Brooks Stadium:

• All belongings must be in a clear bag
• No outside food or drinks
• No umbrellas
• No weapons
• No re-entry

Coastal Carolina head coach Jamey Chadwell says he can’t wait to see fans back in seats at Brooks Stadium.

”I don’t know if you could ask for something better,” said Chadwell. “It’s a great opportunity to showcase, you know, our university. And you know showcase this team and who they are and what they’re about and the mindset that they have. I hope it’s packed. I hope we set a record. This team, these young men have an opportunity to go out and do some special things and we need to get behind them.”

The Chants are coming off back-to-back seasons of double-digit wins and were voted second in their division in the 2022 Sun Belt Conference Preseason Poll.

Gates open at 5:30 p.m. while kickoff is at 7 p.m. Saturday.
