Have you been? Is it entertaining? I heard there will be fireworks, that seems nice.

I last went in 2004. LIVE (the band) played. No one gave a shite. Everyone was drinking and partying on side streets like Homer.

Good fireworks.

They're kind of meh. Fireworks were cool.

Year I went, we caught the teams intro, the smash mouth started to play so we left. Went to a bar across the street, saw a guy wearing a 1987 Nebraska sugar bowl shirt. I said yo him y'all killed us that game, that was my first bowl game with my dad. We got to talking, he invites us to hang out with his friends. They have a camper behind center. $10 for all you can eat a drink per day. Was a great time.

Also, got to know the people at the place we parked. They bought/sold tickets. Ends up one of their friends had seasons tickets, so some of the games we weren't too interested in, she'd go in until the 3rd or 4th, then come out and give us the tickets. We'd go and sit 4 rows up behind home plate for the rest of the game.

Aloe Blacc is playing a free show if you're into that? Fireworks should be dece as always.

College World Series Opening Ceremonies at 8:30 p.m. CT where all eight teams will parade out onto the field. A show by the U.S. Golden Knights parachute team will follow, along with a concert by Grammy-nominated Aloe Blacc and a fireworks show. Sounds like a great time for all, and it’s free to the public.
