Though there was some hoopla in recent months about the finances behind the team and the stadium, the Rochester Raging Rhinos are here to stay (at least for now). You can see Rex and the guys this Friday, May 17, when the Rhinos kick off the home season vs. the Charleston Battery at PAETEC Park, 460 Oak Street. The game starts at 7:35 p.m. Tickets cost $8-$20 depending who you are (adult or kid) and where you wanna sit (general admission, premium, reserved end zone, etc.) Tickets are available through Ticketmaster; order by phone (232-1900), online (ticketmaster.com), or at the box office.

Also, keep an eye out for the Rhino's women's team home opener, which happens at PAETEC on Friday, May 24, at 7:35 p.m., when the team plays the Western Mass Lady Pioneers.
