ORLANDO, Fla. (UCFAthletics.com) - The UCF UKNIGHT Tour is coming to Tampa Thursday. The tour, which features football head coach George O'Leary, will make a stop in the area at the Rusty Pelican.
The free event begins at 6 p.m. The Rusty Pelican is located at 2425 North Rocky Point Drive, just off the Courtney Campbell Causeway in the Rocky Point District of Tampa.
Joining O'Leary, who led the Knights to the 2010 Conference USA title and a victory over Georgia in the AutoZone Liberty Bowl, will be guests from other UCF varsity programs, the Golden Knights Club and the UCF Alumni Association. Representatives from several colleges at UCF, including the new College of Medicine, will also be on hand.
There is no charge to attend the UKNIGHT Tour stop in Tampa, but those planning to go to the event are asked to RSVP by calling the Golden Knights Club at (407) 882-1289 or sign-up by visiting events.athletics.ucf.edu.
Any loyal Knight fan who brings a guest who is presently not a member of the Golden Knights Club or a UCF season ticket holder to tour stops will receive a special appreciation gift courtesy of the GKC. If that guest should join the GKC or purchase 2011 UCF football season tickets, the referring fan can be entered into a grand prize drawing for an all-expense paid bowl trip to wherever the Knights play (excluding Hawaii).
Diehard UCF football fans won't want to miss O'Leary review the historic 2010 season, provide insider details on the upcoming 2011 campaign, talk about state of the UCF football program and much more.
The evening in Tampa will feature an autograph session, prize raffles, trivia contests, a cash bar and free appetizers. The event will begin with a meet and greet, with the evening's program commencing shortly after.
