Nebraska football fans can mark their calendars for Saturday, Aug. 8 when the Huskers will open the gates to Memorial Stadium for the annual Fan Day.

Fan Day is the best opportunity for Husker fans of all ages to meet their favorite Husker players and coaches. All players and coaches will be seated in Memorial Stadium for 90 minutes and available to sign autographs and pose for pictures with Nebraska fans.

Fan Day festivities will run from 9:30-11 a.m. on Aug. 8. In addition to the opportunity to meet the 2009 Huskers, fans can also pick up 2009 posters and media guides at Huskers Authentic, just across the street from Memorial Stadium. Huskers Authentic recently re-opened and features the newest Husker apparel and hundreds of outstanding items.

The day will be a busy one for Husker players as they will open fall practice later that afternoon.

More information regarding Fan Day, including entrance and exit information will be available on Huskers.com leading up to the event.
