Huntsville is a sports town, and there are two main seasons you need to know… Baseball season with the Rocket City Trash Pandas and hockey season with the three-time SPHL champions, the Huntsville Havoc.
Dubbed the hockey capital of the South, hockey has been a mainstay in the city of Huntsville for as long as I’ve been alive and well before that. From the days of UAH College Hockey to the Southern League’s Channel Cats in the mid-90s, Huntsville has loved its hockey for decades.
It’s not uncommon to see Propst Arena sell out for Havoc hockey games during the season. The Havoc continue to hold the regular season attendance record for the SPHL with their 2019 average of 4,932 fans a night. There isn’t another team close to that mark, and the Havoc may break that record again.
So how do they keep all these people coming? Surely not everyone in this town is a hockey fan, right? Well… Although there are a lot of hockey fans in the city of Huntsville, their promo nights play a significant role in packing the house at Propst Arena.
The Havoc has just released their 2022–2023 promo night schedule, and it looks like there’s a night dedicated to everyone in the family. From Princess Night to the Havoc Honkey Tonk, there should be plenty of good times had at the Probst arena this fall!
Take a look at the promo schedule below and make a plan now to see some Havoc games this season.
Tickets for the Huntsville Havoc go on sale Monday, September 12th, and can be purchased at the VBC box office or on ticket master. You won’t find a better bang for your buck than a night with the Havoc this fall! We’ll see you all on October 28th, and GO HAVOC!
Jake Brasfield has been a Huntsville resident for nearly his entire life. After graduating from the University of North Alabama in 2012, Jake returned to Huntsville to continue calling the Rocket City “home.” As a native of Huntsville, Jake has watched the changes coming to Huntsville for a long time and couldn’t be any more excited about the progress and potential this town has. You will likely find Jake at either a food truck rally, a Trash Pandas baseball game, a Huntsville Havoc hockey game, checking out a local music act, or all of the above. Say hey to Jake if you ever see him around town! He’d love to meet you and tell you all about his home of Huntsville.
