The Athens Rock Lobsters have made the difficult decision to postpone Saturday, January 31st’s Hops N Hockey Night following conversations with Athens-Clarke County emergency services and extensive internal discussions surrounding the incoming winter storm and freezing conditions.
This was not an easy call.
We were actively working toward playing Saturday’s game, especially with the Pee Dee IceCats already in town and prepared to compete. We also explored options to accommodate fans who may not have felt comfortable traveling by offering ticket exchanges for future games.
After much deliberation, we ultimately determined that the safety of our fans, players, staff, and community must come first. While conditions may vary earlier in the day, the potential impact of freezing temperatures, deteriorating roads, and unsafe travel conditions later in the evening (particularly when fans and staff would be leaving the arena) led us to make the decision to postpone.
A new date for Hops N Hockey has not yet been selected. All tickets purchased for Saturday’s game will automatically be valid for the rescheduled date once announced. Fans who prefer to exchange their tickets for a different future Rock Lobsters home game may contact the front office at 706-510-2959 for assistance.
