The Memphis Tiger football team had a roaring good time at the Memphis Zoo during the 3rd Annual Tiger Night at Zoo Lights, held on December 13th. This family-friendly evening, presented by FedEx, was the perfect blend of community engagement and team bonding. The entire team turned out to create unforgettable memories with fans of all ages.

Each child who entered the Zoo received a special passport, guiding them to festive activity stations hosted by the players. From gingerbread house decorating and writing letters to Santa to a snowball toss, carol singing, and a lively selfie station, there was something for everyone. As kids collected stamps at each station, they earned a prize to cap off the magical experience.

Adding to the fun were beloved mascot Pouncer, the spirited pom squad, and the energetic Ambush Crew, all joining in the celebration. The event also served as an enthusiastic send-off for the Tigers as they prepared for the Scooter's Coffee Frisco Bowl, where they’re aiming for an impressive 10th straight bowl win.

A huge thank you to FedEx and the Memphis Zoo for teaming up to make the 3rd Annual Tiger Night at Zoo Lights a spectacular success!

University of Memphis Football won their 10th straight bowl game!
