Hey there, sports fans! If you’re planning a visit to Rupp Arena in Lexington, Kentucky, there’s some news you won’t want to miss. The arena has just launched a shiny new concession stand dubbed the Wildcat Walk Thru, which is taking the usual snack line experience to a whole new level! Get ready for some mouth-watering treats without the long wait!
The Wildcat Walk Thru isn’t your typical concession stand—oh no! It’s equipped with cutting-edge “Just Walk Out” technology developed by Amazon. This means that you can simply grab your favorite snacks and drinks and head out without standing in those dreaded long lines. Imagine the freedom of not having to wait for that popcorn or soda while you’re pumped up for the game!
Here’s how it works: When you arrive at the Wildcat Walk Thru, you tap your card to enter. Simple as that! Inside, around 40 cameras are working hard to track everything you pick up or put back. So when you’re done, just saunter out, and you’ll only be charged for what you’ve taken. Just don’t forget, if you want to purchase any alcoholic beverages, you’ll need to flash your ID to the staff as you go in; they’re ensuring everything stays nice and safe. Also, to get your ticket to this speedy service, there’s a $25 pre-authorization charge required at the entrance.
Curious about trying this out yourself? The Wildcat Walk Thru made its grand debut during the Kentucky basketball home opener. Big basketball fans, rejoice! Because this innovative stand is here to stay for all future events at Rupp Arena. You can find it conveniently located just inside the main entrance, near Section 13.
Don’t worry if the Wildcat Walk Thru isn’t your thing! The other concession spots at Rupp Arena will continue to operate just like before. So whether you’re in the mood for some old-fashioned nachos or soda, you’ll find all your favorites available.
Make sure to mark your calendars because Rupp Arena is gearing up for some thrilling upcoming events! Kentucky basketball fans are especially excited for matchups on November 19 and November 22. Plus, don’t miss the iconic concert by REO Speedwagon on November 23. A great way to spend your evenings, right?
In addition to the new concessions, UK Athletics is ramping up its game with mobile ticketing at all venues. So, to ensure a smooth entry, fans should ensure that their UK Athletics app is updated for a hassle-free experience with SafeTix™. And don’t forget—if you have parking permits, make sure to have them ready on your mobile device, as they will be scanned at the parking lots!
Finally, Rupp Arena is taking fan safety seriously. They’ve enhanced their safety measures to provide everyone with a secure and enjoyable experience during events. After all, we want you to focus on the game, the snacks, and making every moment count.
So, gather your friends, put on your favorite team colors, and get ready to enjoy the newest concession experience at Rupp Arena. Cheers to exciting events, quick snacks, and good times ahead!
