Rutgers Football Tickets

The Rutgers Scarlet Knights play their home games at SHI Stadium in Piscataway, New Jersey. This venue has been their home since 1994, providing a dedicated space for fans to support their team.

Purchasing tickets in advance can offer peace of mind, but sometimes waiting until closer to the event can lead to better deals. Ticket sellers and live event performers love to see venues full of fans, so they may decrease prices on available tickets as the event approaches. Last-minute tickets can mean big savings—prices often drop as event day gets closer, so you might score a deal just in time! Gametime's platform is a great last-minute option, helping you find the best deals without the guesswork.

The Rutgers Scarlet Knights have several notable rivalries:

• Princeton Tigers: As the first two teams to play college football, their matchups are historically significant.

• Maryland Terrapins: Since joining the Big Ten Conference, this rivalry has intensified, with both teams competing for regional supremacy.

Rutgers fans have several unique traditions that enhance the game-day experience:

• The Scarlet Walk: Before every home game, the team walks through the parking lots, greeting fans and touching the "First Game" statue, commemorating the first-ever college football game played in 1869.

• The Cannon: A cannon is fired after a Rutgers touchdown and at the end of a game with a Rutgers win, adding to the excitement and energy in the stadium.

• The Call-and-Response: A chant where one side of the stadium yells "R," and the other side responds with "U," fostering a sense of unity and school spirit among fans.

• The Bells Must Ring: Rutgers' fight song, played for every touchdown, includes the famous "RU Rah Rah" cheer, energizing the crowd and celebrating team achievements.
