Grassroots ticket campaign encourages Demon Deacon fans to invite new fans to Truist Field.
WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. -- In the continued effort to provide the Best Fan Experience in North Carolina, Wake Forest Athletics grassroots initiatives from 2019 have returned as the Demon Deacons outstanding Fan Experience staff has been going door-to-door in Winston-Salem to distribute Demon Deacon football information and yard signs.
Get a FREE DEACTOWN yard sign by visiting GoDeacs.com/YardSign or get a DEACTOWN fan box with a flag here. Additionally, Athletics is excited to return the Ticket Ambassador Program for the 2021 season.
This initiative gives fans the opportunity to purchase tickets in bulk to home games at Truist Field this fall. Each year a number of local businesses and groups - even local supper clubs - take advantage of this opportunity to treat their clients and employees, schools and organizations, and friends and family to the Best Fan Experience in North Carolina at Truist Field.
Deacon Club members have a longstanding tradition of participating in this initiative that allows everyone in the Winston-Salem and Triad community to feel connected to one another and come together at Truist Field.
"If you believe in something, you want to support it, and not just financially," loyal Deacon Club supporter Tim Welborn said. "Whether it's being a positive voice, encouraging others to attend a game or simply sharing the stories of our student-athletes, we can all be great ambassadors for Wake Forest and our athletic programs."
Opportunities await to make a Wake Forest football game the destination for our next group outing and join the University and Winston-Salem community in the heart of DEACTOWN this fall.
Packages begin at only $300 for 20 tickets. For more information regarding the Football Ambassador Program, please call (336) 758-3322 ext. 1 or click here.

- Wake Forest football boasts a record of 44-20 against North Carolina institutions since the turn of the century in 2001.
- Wake Forest has the highest win percentage and the most overall wins among its Big 4 rivals when they play one another during that time span as well.
- Wake Forest: 30-20
- North Carolina: 29-23
- NC State: 26-21
- Duke: 13-36
- The Deacs have reached a program-record five-straight bowl games. That mark is the third-longest streak in the ACC, trailing just Clemson and Miami (FL).
- The month of October saw the Demon Deacons go a perfect 4-0, marking the first time since the 2007 season a Wake Forest team had accomplished that feat. The run included a three-game ACC winning streak and was highlighted by a 23-16 victory over No. 18 Virginia Tech on October 24.
- That victory was Wake Forest's first win over a ranked opponent since 2018.
- With the help of two 50-plus point games against Campbell and North Carolina, Wake Forest set a new program record, scoring 36.0 points per game. The previous record was held by the 2017 Dave Clawson led squad who averaged 35.3 points per game.
- Sam Hartman's streak of 258 consecutive passes from Nov. 30, 2019 to Dec. 12, 2020 without an interception ranks fifth in ACC history.
- Nick Sciba currently ranks first in ACC history in career field goal percentage (min. 50 attempts) with an 89.1 percent clip. He is 57-of-64 in his career. The Lou Groza semifinalist ended the season with 12 consecutive made field goals.
- He goes into the 2021 campaign needing just 39 points to break the Wake Forest school record for career points. He currently sits at 299 in his career. Dustin Hopkins (Florida State, 2009-12) currently holds the ACC all-time scoring record with 466 points.
- True freshman Nick Andersen recorded four interceptions this season, including three in the Deacons win over Virginia Tech. He is just the third player in the Dave Clawson era (Amari Henderson, 4 in 2019; Jesse Bates, 5 in 2016) to accomplish this feat and is just the ninth Demon Deacon to do so since the turn of the century.
- For his efforts in that performance against the Hokies, Andersen earned multiple ACC and National awards. Additionally, he became the first player to have three in a single game since A.J. Greene (Nov. 21, 1987 at Georgia Tech).
- Wide receiver Jaquarii Roberson proved he is one of the best wide receivers in the ACC and the country this fall.
- Roberson ranks in the top 10 in Wake Forest's single season records in receiving yards (926) and receiving touchdowns (8). Additionally, he tied a program record by finishing the 2020 campaign with four-straight 100-yard receiving yard games.
- Roberson also set a school record average receiving yards per game in 2020.
- The season opener versus Old Dominion on Friday, Sept. 3 will mark the first-ever meeting between the two schools.
- Wake Forest's next home game on Saturday, Sept. 11 affords the Deacs the same opportunity, facing Norfolk State for the first time in program history.
- On Nov. 6, the Demon Deacons will play North Carolina for the 109th time in program history. This will mark the first time since the 2004 season that the Deacs and Tar Heels will meet in three consecutive seasons.
- The final non-conference game of the season has Wake Forest traveling to Army. This is the seventh time since 2007 the Deacs and Black Knights will square off, the most of any non-conference opponent over that period.
- A home date against NC State continues the third longest continuously played series in major college football and the longest in the ACC. The series has been played every year since 1910.
