With fans not in the stands in 2020, Fresno State Athletics announced a brand new app to aid the virtual experience in 2020. It includes real-time updates, schedules and behind-the-scenes content to connect fans in a virtual experience.Â
Fans are invited to play along from home. The new "Doghouse Game Day" virtual experience brings the energy of in-stadium promotions, engagement, and trivia for Bulldog football games to your phone. Fans can play along during the game, win prizes, and compete with other Fresno State fans during in-game contests. This "second screen" experience will also be available for fans to participate when the team is on the road. More information on Doghouse Game Day is scheduled for release later this week.
