What to do? Go have a good time. How old are you?

Where to go? The parade grounds is where you'll want to set up.

What to bring? A tent, toothbrush, water to brush you fonky arse mouth in the am, sleeping bag, beer, food and cooking equipment if you plan on cooking.

When to get there? Anytime Friday night. You won't have any issues finding a spot friday, so just whenever y'all feel like getting out there and starting to soak it all in.


At the parade grounds you literally have everything right there at your disposal.

Student union is a 2 minute walk away. Clean bathrooms, food to eat. Also, not far from you is Chimes, buffalo wild wings, barcadia, a CVS and gas station if y'all want to eat Friday night or forget something and need to pick it up quickly.

Advice for game day. Soak it in Friday night, but get you some sleep. Unless you can stay awake for 48 hrs with little to no sleep. Otherwise 7:00 game time will come and you'll feel like death. The game is the reason for all of this, don't miss out on that.

If your goal is to get in the front of game day set then you'll probably have to start getting in line around 6ish. However, the crowd will dictate the time the line starts forming. Just know, inside the game day set is hot, crowded and you can't bring alcohol. That is enough for me to not do it. I'll probably go check it out, but hang out on the outside.

What else you need to know? I've done it tons of times and camped out a bunch.
