Hurricanes Homegrown Guide: Dec. 16

The 2017-18 Hurricanes Homegrown Series continues when the Carolina Hurricanes return home from a two-week road trip to host the Columbus Blue Jackets on Saturday, Dec. 16.
Expanded in its second season, the Hurricanes Homegrown Series features seven games that showcase some of the best our local community has to offer in t-shirts, food, beer & spirits, art and music.
Here's an in-depth look at each Homegrown aspect for Saturday night at PNC Arena.

T-Shirt

Oak City Collection designed and produced this Oak City cityscape t-shirt. When doors open at 6 p.m., 200 of these shirts will be available at the north end location of The Eye team store (section 112). Each shirt is marked by a unique printed tag that denotes the game and shirt series, and there is a limit of two shirts per person per purchase.
Food

The featured in-house, signature entrée is a returning favorite: chicken and waffles, featuring boneless bites of fried chicken topped with a sweet Texas Pete sauce, served in a fresh-made waffle bowl on a bed of shoestring potatoes. You can get this at the section 109 concessions stand (where all Homegrown entrees are available this season) for $10.

New for the 2017-18 Hurricanes Homegrown Series is an in-house, signature dessert: navy bean pie features a spiced cinnamon custard filling poured into a flaky crust and topped with whipped cream. This treat is available at the newly-created Homegrown Series dessert cart at section 111 for $8.

Flights, featuring four six-ounce pours, of Lynnwood Brewing Concern's beer will be available at section 121. You can select any combinations of the brews they offer, and the flights are priced at $12.
