Got tickets and ready to erase last years game from my mind. I believe a win tomorrow and against Minny makes Iowa bowl eligible with four games to go.
I will be there with my wife and a couple of buddies. Shortest trip of the year for us. Floyd will be coming back to Iowa City next Saturday.
Look for the price of tickets to drop dramatically on Craigslist and StubHub over the next few days. It actually already has begun to drop. And there will be plenty outside of the stadium the day of the game too.
Minnesota sports fans are pretty apathetic, especially when it comes to the Goophs.
Where is everybody going before the game? We went to a bar called Sally's last year and it was packed. Good amount of Hawk fans there too. Debating on doing the bar thing again this year or maybe heading to the fairgrounds for some actual tailgating.
Have heard that the shuttles to and from the fairgrounds are pretty conveinent and the word on Gopher Hole is that North Dakota State fans took over the fairgrounds when they played up there.
I'll be there! 5 of us leaving Friday morning. I always go to the Ugly Mug before the game. I believe it's $35 for a all you can drink beer and a burger basket. They also have buses that take you to the game. Don't have tickets yet but there were plenty available last year so I doubt it will be a problem to get some really cheap this year.
aside from that there should be a lot to pick from outside the stadium on Saturday. As for me I will not be going to the game but instead will be in Montgomery MN for the Elite Barbell Fall Classic/MN State Meet followed up by watching Rosemount HS win their playoff game over a "yet to be determined" opponent
