Tech hosts Fall Fan Fest Saturday at the TAC

Along with the Louisiana Tech football, soccer, and volleyball teams signing autographs at Fall Fan Fest on Saturday, there will also be a special pre-release book signing at the event inside the Thomas Assembly Center.

Set to be officially released on Aug. 15, fans will have the opportunity to get an advanced copy of Chris Kennedy’s book “Louisiana Tech’s Joe Aillet” and have it autographed by the author.

In the book, Kennedy illuminates the full picture of the Louisiana Tech icon, from his against-the-odds childhood to his tenure as head coach of the Bulldog football team that stretched north of a quarter century and included 151 wins and 12 championships.

The cost of the book is $26.50. Doors to the TAC will open at 11:30 a.m. with the free event slated from noon to 2 p.m.

Youngsters can enjoy a photo booth, inflatable bounce houses, and various games. Official Tech merchandise through the Barnes and Nobles Bookstore will be on sale while members of the Tech spirit squads will join Champ and Tech XXII for the event. Concessions will also be available.

Season tickets for football and soccer will be on sale at the event along with the opportunity for parents to register their boys and girls for the Champ’s Kids Club.

The Champ’s Kids Club membership is $75 for the year and includes admission to every home regular season sporting event for 2022-23.
