The Atlanta Silverbacks professional soccer team, named after Willie B, have partnered with Zoo Atlanta, the legendary gorilla's former residence, on a ticket offer for the 2013 season opener at Atlanta Silverbacks Park. 

The Silverbacks and Zoo Atlanta, who the club looks forward to partnering with throughout the 2013 season, are offering a joint ticket package for the April 13 season opener against the Fort Lauderdale Strikers. The ticket package, starting as low as $102, will feature four tickets to Zoo Atlanta and four tickets to the Silverbacks' season opener. 

"We're very excited to partner with Zoo Atlanta," said Silverbacks General Manager Andy Smith. "As the city knows, our team name is deeply tied to Zoo Atlanta, so we're looking forward to offering a great package that allows our fans to experience both a Silverbacks game and all of the fantastic things that the Zoo has to offer."

Kickoff will be at 7:30 p.m. on April 13. For more information or to purchase the ticket package, call the Silverbacks ticket office at 404-969-4900.
