Atlanta is continuing to celebrate Outkast’s November induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.
The Hawks will host an Outkast-themed night during Wednesday’s game against the Los Angeles Clippers at State Farm Arena. The first 5,000 fans through the door will receive a limited-edition figurine set of the iconic Atlanta duo. Created by Handmade by Robots, the hand-knitted collectibles feature André 3000 and Big Boi in Hawks gear and are produced by robots.

Outkast music will be played throughout the game. At halftime, Tarik Rowland will lead the marching band from Tri-Cities High School — where Outkast was formed — in a tribute performance honoring the legendary act.
Big Boi is scheduled to attend the game, and Outkast will receive a special acknowledgment for being the first Southern rap act to be inducted into the Rock Hall of Fame.
The rap duo officially received one of music’s highest honors on Nov. 8. Metro Atlanta native Donald Glover inducted the pair, while Doja Cat, Killer Mike, JID, Tyler, the Creator, Big Boi, Sleepy Brown and Janelle Monáe performed during the presentation.
