Ithaca College is hosting an exclusive opportunity to purchase tickets for the 2022 Cortaca Jug football game at Yankee Stadium during a special one-week sale which is now officially open as of Monday, September 12, at noon.

Unlike past years, there WILL NOT be a physical on-campus ticket sale, as all ticket transactions to attend the 2022 Cortaca Jug game will take place exclusively and electronically through Ticketmaster. 

Please use this exclusive Ticketmaster link to access the reserved tickets for this sale to our IC community.

Tickets available in this special sale will guarantee members of our campus community seats located in the designated Ithaca College section and are available at the discounted cost of $28.50 per ticket, which includes all associated taxes and fees. This official ticket sale for our campus community will run through Sunday, September 18, at noon, dependent on continued availability. 

This private sale is only open to members of our active Ithaca College community who have a valid ithaca.edu email account. The campus community is encouraged to act quickly as the game at Yankee Stadium is expected to sell out. Please note that once this exclusive campus ticket sale concludes on September 18 at noon, any remaining tickets will be made available to the general public.

As a reminder, the 2022 Cortaca Jug game at Yankee Stadium is set to kick off at 1:00 p.m. EST on Saturday, November 12. The contest is the centerpiece of the college's much anticipated IC in the City - Reunion and Cortaca '22 festivities taking place throughout the weekend. It will be the 63rd time that SUNY Cortland and Ithaca College have clashed on the gridiron in this annual rivalry game. Visit the 2022 Cortaca Jug website for additional information.

Student Bus Tickets Also on Sale

Students interested in securing round-trip bus transportation from campus to Yankee Stadium will also be able to purchase their bus ticket electronically. The college will be sponsoring nine coach buses with a total of 486 seats available. Bus tickets will cost $20 per person and the reservation form will also go live on Monday, September 12, at noon, extending until all available seats are filled. Please note that bus ticket sales will be handled on a first-come, first-served basis and space is limited, so students are encouraged to secure their seat as soon as possible.
