The San Jose Earthquakes announced Monday that the team has partnered with KFC for the second year in a row to launch the Colonel's Corner promotion at every home game for the 2009 season. The promotion will give fans the opportunity to purchase great seats for only $15-the most affordable Earthquakes tickets in town.
The Corner View section 107 at Buck Shaw Stadium in Santa Clara and sections 131 and 132 at Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum will be officially branded as the KFC Colonel's Corner.
"We are glad to have KFC back this year after a very successful year in 2008," stated David Alioto, Executive Vice President for the San Jose Earthquakes. "In this economy these tickets in the Colonel's Corner offer fans a great value."
Fans can purchase tickets regularly priced at $22 for Buck Shaw Stadium and at $40 for Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum for only $15 at participating KFC restaurants. The Colonel's Corner vouchers can be purchased at 27 participating KFC restaurants across the South Bay and will be redeemable for any game, subject to availability. The vouchers can be redeemed at Earthquakes Offices or at the stadium on the day of the game. KFC will have 500 tickets available for each game.
"We formed a great partnership with the San Jose Earthquakes last year and are looking forward to participating again this year. This has been a win/win relationship with the amazing fans and great organization," added Jeremy Dimick, Regional Director Harman Management for KFC.
