The former NFL punter-turned-media personality Pat McAfee is set to potentially rock the PPG Paints Arena with additional tickets to his sold-out "Big Night AHT" show in Pittsburgh. On Monday, McAfee revealed that a fresh batch of 1,750 seats will suddenly become accessible to fans eager to participate in what's shaping up to be an epic event on April 9, as per TribLIVE. Tickets will become available at noon on April 2 and will be up for grabs at the same price points as the original tickets, which vaporized in a brisk 92 minutes when they went on sale on March 13.
The additional ticket release by McAfee might simply add to the fever pitch surrounding the event, where during his eponymous ESPN show, McAfee teed up expectations by stating, "Going to give away a bunch of money, going to have some spectacular talent in the building." Citing the WTAE statement, McAfee added, "Hopefully we have a Wednesday night that’s talked about forever." The Plum native's emotional reaction to the initial rapid ticket sales catalyzed the ticket increase, a sentiment he openly shared with his audience.
Amidst rampant speculation, McAfee has addressed rumors that Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers, who frequently appeared on McAfee's show during the NFL season, could announce a blockbuster signing with the Pittsburgh Steelers during the event. However, McAfee swiftly dismissed the speculation on his X platform, "That's crazy. That is hilarious to think about. I do appreciate that people think that is what is possible," as reported by WTAE.
While the event's entertainment lineup remains under wraps, eager fans can also look forward to potential appearances by local sports personalities, including 93.7 The Fan and Steelers correspondent Mark Kaboly. Tickets will be available through Ticketmaster, with many fans expected to snap up these hot commodities quickly.
