The community is invited to bring blankets and sit on the new Bulldog Stadium AstroTurf for a free showing of “The Lion King” movie (with captions) at 7 p.m. Tuesday, Oct. 22. Concession items will be available for purchase, but no outside food, drink or chairs will be allowed inside the stadium. Parking is free, and Fresno State mascot TimeOut and live mascot Victor E. Bulldog III will greet guests.

The homecoming game ball will also be on site so fans can touch it for good luck as part of the #BlessTheBall tradition that students started last season to send the football team good vibes ahead of Saturday’s homecoming game at 4:30 p.m. against Colorado State.
