WVU Announces Details for Annual Football Fan Day
West Virginia University will host its annual Football Fan Day on Friday, August 28, inviting supporters to the campus for a series of autograph and meet‑and‑greet opportunities with players and coaches.
The signing session runs from 5 p.m. to 6 p.m. in the West concourse of Milan Puskar Stadium, with entry through the West Gate (Press Box Side) opening at 4:55 p.m. Admission is free, though each fan may claim only one autograph item and posed photographs are limited to keep the flow smooth.
Season ticket holders and members of the Mountaineer Athletic Club receive an early entry window at 3 p.m., allowing them to watch practice from 3:30 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. Non‑holder MAC members are allotted two tickets per account for the event.
A contest is underway to award ten Fast‑Pass tickets that grant early gate access; winners will be notified by email the week of the event. Free parking will be available in lots A1, E, F1, F2, F3, F4, the parking garage on Don Nehlen Drive, and the Area 76 lot near the WVU Law School.
Attendees can also pick up a 2026 football schedule poster and magnet during the autograph session, while the university continues to sell season tickets, mobile passes, mini packages and single‑game tickets for the upcoming campaign through WVUGAME.com.
What Fans Should Expect
Beyond the autographs, the day is designed to give supporters a behind‑the‑scenes look at the program, fostering closer connections between the team and its fan base. The limited practice viewing offers a glimpse of drills and strategies, while the contest adds an element of excitement for those hoping to secure early entry.
Organizers have emphasized crowd management, restricting posed pictures to maintain a smooth experience, and have provided clear signage for parking and entry points to streamline the process for all participants.
