Official Release ...

Hot Dog Day Returns On Nov. 22 vs. Tennessee
All fans in attendance will receive a coupon for a Gwaltney hot dog
and a 12-ounce Pepsi

CHARLOTTESVILLE – In an effort to set a new Virginia women’s
basketball single-game attendance record, the promotion that helped
set the current mark 22 years ago is back on Nov. 22 vs. Tennessee –
Hot Dog Day.

All Cavalier fans in attendance at this year’s Virginia-Tennessee game
on Sunday, Nov. 22, will receive a coupon for a free Gwaltney hot dog
and a 12-ounce Pepsi. Tip-off is scheduled for 2 p.m. at John Paul
Jones Arena.

The original Hot Dog Night was Feb. 5, 1986, vs. No. 15 North Carolina
in University Hall, which drew a standing room only crowd of 11,174.
That mark still stands as the largest home crowd at a Virginia women’s
basketball game.

Last season, the Cavaliers traveled to Thompson-Boling Arena in
Knoxville, Tenn., and defeated the fifth-ranked Lady Vols, 83-82. Hall
of Fame coaches Debbie Ryan and Pat Summitt will lead their respective
teams on Nov. 22 for the rematch at John Paul Jones Arena.

Tickets are available at VirginiaSports.com, or by calling the
Virginia Athletics Ticket Office at 800-542-8821 or by visiting the
Athletics Ticket Office in Bryant Hall during regular business hours,
Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
