Veterans, serving and retired law enforcement officers, firefighters, EMTs, nurses and 911 Dispatchers can claim their tickets at VetTix.org while supplies last.

UTRGV Athletics supports 1st Tix's mission of providing tickets to events that reduce stress, strengthen family bonds, create lasting memories, and encourage first responders to stay engaged with their communities and American life. 1st Tix supports the brave men and women who answer our emergency calls by honoring their service with positive family and life experiences – during and after service – by offering free tickets to sporting events, concerts, performing arts, educational, and family activities across the country. Since 2008, Vet Tix has distributed over 30 million free event tickets to more than 2.4 million members nationwide.
