Macon Mayhem at Macon Coliseum
Georgia’s Macon Coliseum, a stone’s throw from the Ocmulgee riverfront, is home to the former Southern Professional Hockey League (SPHL) champions Macon Mayhem. The Mayhem are led by gritty head coach Kevin Kerr, named 2016-17 SPHL Coach of the Year, now in his second stint with the team. Kerr is a professional hockey lifer - in his nearly 20 years as a player, he was a fierce right winger who topped 100 points in a season five times while with the Flint Generals. He brings that same tenacious mentality to a team that features equal parts experience and promise, headlined by players like 2019-20 SPHL top goal scorer Brian Bowen, shifty center Stephen Pierog and fast rising goalie Jake Theut. Mayhem games inside the grandiose Coliseum offer something for everyone, with multiple Family Fun Nights, a ’90s themed night and even a “Margaritaville Night” with a Best Dressed Jimmy Buffet contest. Besides single game tickets, five- or ten-game flex packages are available, as well as season tickets in the upper bowl or up against the glass right in front of the action. Another reason to consider season seats? All packages include exclusive parking lot access, buddy passes, merchandise discounts and more.
Macon Mayhem Background
Founded in 2010 as the Augusta RiverHawks, the team moved to Macon ahead of the 2015-16 season and officially became the Mayhem. They wasted no time making their new presence felt in the SPHL ranks and won the President’s Cup in their second season by sweeping the Peoria Rivermen in the Championship Series. Part of the Macon Centreplex, Macon Coliseum is the multipurpose events jewel of Central Georgia. In addition to hosting all Mayhem home games, the Centreplex hosts monster truck rallies, professional wrestling, the Garden Brothers Nuclear Circus, family-centric events and large-scale concerts from stars like The Avett Brothers, Mary J. Blige and Patti LaBelle.
