Is uber an option in Oxford?
Yes Ubers are available . There are also taxis too in town and they’ll be parked in the square area hopefully for easy pickups .
I am attaching a document of new Uber/Lyft tide share pickup locations .
Yes this is something new they started last year to take some of the congestion off the square .
So when you call your Uber they’ll say meet me at the North pickup instead of I’m in front of the library or whatever
Rideshare pickup locations
I had forgotten they did this a few weeks ago as I don’t go party on the square much these days and had to look up which location was which and where to go for my pickup

I’ve got only one bad experience with Oxford. My daughter went to the game when Eli was QB. She was with a Sorority bunch and they visited the Oxford chapter. While there she had a drink in their yard and was stopped by campus security to check IDs. She said the security was only checking girls with LSU jerseys. She was 3 months from age 21 and got an underage drinking ticket. She knows most of the OM girls were underage too but didn’t get checked.
I said to myself, OK, that’s what a rivalry is all about. I called a lawyer bud of mine in Oxford and he put me in touch with a guy in their DAs office. I explained what happened and asked how much and where to send check. The DA asst told me the fine was FIVE HUNDRED dollars! WTF! It was $100 in Baton Rouge. I told the guy “screw you” and hung up. I didn’t pay it and told my daughter that if you go through Misipee ever again do not get behind the wheel cause you will probably have a bench warrant on you if you get stopped for anything. I’m sure the statute is over now but they weren’t about to get five gogle-eyes from me. There is no telling what the fine is these days. True Story!

Take this man’s advice. If you stay out late on the square, make sure you get to one of those 3 places to get picked up by an Uber. They will not deviate from those spots this weekend. I would start heading to a location around 12:15 because if you wait till close , good luck you’re fricked.
Moes penny bar is a great spot to hang out after the game, good ppl in there. They also have a 24 and up rooftop bar called the blue bistro rooftop. It’s directly across the street from roosters. Pretty cool spot with no young students. If you wanna get assholes to elbows then library is your spot. They usually do have some good music going on tho, just not really into the crowd these days. Loose women for the single man.
Places to eat: Lenora’s, grill house, boure ,Volta, jinsi and st. Leo ( my spot). There are a bunch more, those are the best IMO. Another cool place is the Sip on south Lamar. It’s located in the back of the parking lot across from back 9.
I live here and never go to grove, I just go to a bar with my friends and go the game. I always walk from the square, it’s a 10 min walk to grove and 15 to stadium. Park there if you don’t have a pass and don’t mind walking. The shuttle system will take longer. Hope y’all have fun, it really is a fun experience if you want it to be.
