Super Bowl parties are what define the week of the big game.

Since Tampa is hosting this year’s biggest sporting event, dozens of Bowl-bashes are being thrown throughout the city, from the Super Bowl Experience right next to Raymond James Stadium to the Lingerie Bowl in Pasco County.

But big parties means dishing out loads of cash, right? Not necessarily. A local alternative rock radio station, 97X, has teamed up with Miller Lite to provide a free concert: the 97X Miller Lite Super Party, featuring Hoobastank.

The concert will take place at 6 p.m. on Jan. 30 in St. Pete’s Williams Park, just days after Hoobastank’s new album, ‘For(N)ever,’ is released.
The 97X Miller Lite Super Party will be the second appearance the band makes after the album’s release, so it’ll be the perfect time for die-hard fans to hear the new tunes of one of their favorite bands or for curious onlookers to sample a new band for free.

Don’t be fooled, though. Just because the concert is free doesn’t mean you don’t need tickets.

Luckily for UT students, the ticket drops are at prime locations.
97X will be at the Dubliner Irish Pub on Jan. 24, Radiant 101 on Jan. 27, MacDinton’s on Jan. 28 and Bar Louie on Jan. 29.

Just show up, ask for some tickets and proceed with the regular UT binge drinking.

Miller Lite and 97X aren’t unfamiliar with throwing parties.
In December, they came together to host The Next Big Thing, an all-day-long concert featuring bands such as Avenged Sevenfold, Flogging Molly, Flobots and Anberlin.
