Catch Piston or Red Wings action with Michigan Reads!

The Detroit Pistons have joined MEA and the Red Wings to support Michigan Reads, a program that encourages reading with special promotions at Michigan sporting events. All K-12 students are eligible for 2-for-1 tickets at either Pistons or Red Wings matches. As part of the Michigan Reads team, the Pistons are offering discount packages to students who qualify by reading five books and registering at http://www.michiganreads.com/ . The Red Wings are offering discounts too. Once students are registered and have read five books which parents, guardians or teachers have documented, students can pick which 2-for-1 ticket offer they prefer-the Red Wings or the Pistons. It's easy to get involved-register, read and catch the action!
