Accommodation Alabama introduces
Turning Point USA (TPUSA) will give away 5,000 Charlie Kirk freedom T-shirts to fans who attend the at the Oregon vs. Penn State game at Beaver Stadium in University Park, Pa. on Saturday.
Kirk wore the now-iconic "freedom" shirt on Sept. 10 as he spoke at a Utah Valley University event when a single shot was fired from the roof of a nearby building, which killed the conservative activist. The tragic assassination has devastated the nation, and TPUSA has vowed to continue the mission that Kirk worked so passionately for.
"In the vein, and in honor of Charlie Kirk, we are going to fight cultural battles, and we are going to win them in an arena that Charlie loved so very much - college football," conservative podcaster and Kirk's longtime friend Benny Johnson announced Thursday on "Will Cain Country."

"Turning Point USA, at the game of the week, Penn State versus the Oregon Ducks, this is going to be a massive game. This was a game that Charlie Kirk was going to attend. Charlie Kirk loves Oregon, but he also has a bunch of fans at Penn State and has done huge events there," Johnson continued. "Turning Point USA is going to be handing out 5,000 Charlie Kirk freedom shirts at that game."
Johnson, who held up a "freedom" shirt identical to the one Kirk was wearing when he was tragically assassinated, said it's going to be a whiteout game, which is a Penn State tradition where fans dress in all white.

"So, it's gonna look great in the stands," Johnson said. We want the student section to be popping with Charlie Kirk freedom shirts for the whiteout at Penn State this weekend."
Kirk rose to prominence after he dropped out of college to pursue political activism and founded Turning Point USA (TPUSA) to serve as an organization that promotes conservative youth activism at high school and college campuses.
TPUSA was founded as a non-profit by Kirk in 2012 after Tea Party activist Bill Montgomery encouraged him to pursue political activism in lieu of attending college and helped him launch the group.

TPUSA told Fox News Digital that approximately 90,000 people attended Kirk's memorial service on Sunday at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona, making it one of the largest public turnouts for a private citizen.
Another 10,000 people gathered at the nearby Desert Diamond Arena, a designated overflow venue, according to estimates provided by TPUSA. Additionally, another 10,000 people watched Kirk's memorial service from nearby viewing areas.
Tyler Robinson, 22, is accused of assassinating Kirk. He surrendered to authorities in his hometown in southern Utah 33 hours after the slaying, after his parents and a family friend convinced him to turn himself in rather than take his own life, according to authorities.
Robinson faces charges including aggravated murder.
