Gates to the stadium will open at 6 p.m. Moviegoers are asked to bring blankets to sit on the turf (no chairs will be allowed) and grab their spot to watch the fan favorite on the Hancock Stadium scoreboard. Seating will also be available in the East and West bleachers of Hancock Stadium.

Hancock Stadium Movie Night concludes a weeklong schedule of events that the Illinois State Athletics Department will host to thank the community for its support throughout the year.
