re: First time in death Valley and I'm hype

Get ready for a night you’ll forever remember.

Definitely drive and park.
Since it’s personal to you, I’m sure you’ll be around campus super early anyway.

Park in front of the law school (facing U High side) around 11. It’s free and first come first serve. After the game it’s a cinch to get out of campus via Dalrymple.
Walk to Chimes for lunch.
Gift shop across the street after.
Book store by law school after that.
Walk through the parade grounds and by the Indian mounds down to visit Mike’s cage.
Hit up other gift shop by Mike.
Get some snacks and hang out in front of PMAC.
Watch band and players come down victory hill at approx. 4:35.
Start walking to seats at 5:00.
Pee
Concessions
Pregame (best part outside the actual game) starts at 5:45.
