Purdue football players slated to appear at Boilermaker Alliance events in Lafayette, Indianapolis
Forget your holiday shopping for a few hours this Saturday and meet Purdue football stars Aidan O’Connell, Devin Mockobee and Payne Durham.
Those players, along with nine others from the 2022 Big Ten West championship squad, will be available for autographs and more at two events organized by the Boilermaker Alliance, a nonprofit that uses the name-image-likeness of Purdue University student-athletes to help them make a difference through charitable giving.
The players will be at Tippecanoe Mall in Lafayette from 2-3 p.m. before leaving for Indianapolis, where they will appear from 5-6:15 p.m. at Gainbridge Fieldhouse before the top-ranked Boilermakers hoops team takes on Davidson.
The players will have their own photos available for autographing. Purdue fans will be able to interact with the players, get autographs and take photos. Fans are encouraged to donate to the charitable causes.
