Still have a ways to go on game logistics and as a PSA to anyone going to a game this season (even Howard): plan on arriving an hour or more before you’re currently planning. Traffic patterns in and out are pretty much fine on the bypass if you’re early, especially if you know your way around town, but we arrived to our lot 2 hours before kickoff to find an oversold, clusterf**k of a patch of grass with 1 (one) employee working the barrier on Fee Lane and none in the lot itself. If you’re still on the road 90 minutes or less before kick you’re probably going to miss some of the game.
Stadium was surprisingly well-stocked with water and you can tell they’ve added bathrooms and POS at the stands with the essentials. You can buy a beer within 2-3 minutes just about anywhere, which is a huge improvement. Bathroom situation is still a zoo. If you want to be in your seat 30 minutes prior to kick, you need to be approaching the stadium on foot an hour before kick.
We’re getting there, but it’s not a machine yet.
