Fans, get your game on outside Colonial Life Arena Sunday before you head in for the Gamecocks’ basketball doubleheader. The EA Sports Invasion Tour is making a stop in Columbia.

EA Sports will have a 40-foot trailer parked in front of the arena at the corner of Green and Lincoln Streets beginning at noon. The trailer has 15 gaming stations, including Wii and Playstation 3, for fans to play NBA Jam, a revival of one of the most popular and culturally influential arcade basketball games ever made. It is free for anyone to play on the trailer, and the EA Sports team will also have some giveaways for those who participate.

Inside the arena, South Carolina’s women’s team takes on Savannah State at 1 p.m. and the men’s team follows with a 4 p.m. matchup with archrival Clemson.
