Gardner Webb Bulldogs Men's Basketball Tickets

Founded in 1969 in Boiling Springs, North Carolina, the Gardner-Webb Runnin' Bulldogs have carved a proud identity in college hoops. The program seized the 2019 Big South Tournament crown to clinch its first NCAA Division I Tournament berth, even sprinting to a halftime lead on eventual national champion Virginia. Earlier, Gardner-Webb reached the NCAA Division II Tournament in 2000, and the 2007 stunner at Rupp Arena over Kentucky still resonates as a program-defining moment.

Home games at Paul Porter Arena on Holbrook Court deliver an intimate, high-energy scene, with a live pep band and a vocal student section amplifying every defensive stand. Annual Big South showdowns with Winthrop and UNC Asheville keep the stakes high and the noise higher. Ready to join the roar? Buy tickets from Vivid Seats to experience it live!
