There are some more economical hotels in Bellevue (suburb to the south). Look at the Microtel or Holiday Inn Express. I would NOT stay in the hotels on Fort Crook Rd, stay on Hwy 370 (near the Microtel, there's also a Hampton and an extended stay of some sort), or the Holiday Inn is by Walmart on a...

I live in Omaha, have gone to games for years. As teams get eliminated, there are more tickets available and prices drop quickly. You can buy from the NCAA ticket exchange which I thought was flashseats.com, but the webpage says it's now https://www.primesport.com/d/ncaa-mens-college-world-series ...

The Storm Chasers tried to negotiate, but the expense was prohibitive and Sarpy County proposed building their own smaller stadium that they would have priority in, so... Werner Park is used for some high school games and they've had a few concerts too in order to support it. And the Storm Chasers ...

Speaking as someone from Omaha, there isn't NEARLY as much tailgating as there was at Rosenblatt. There are a few isolated empty lots, not even sure how you go about reserving those. There are a few hardy people trying to do it in the parking lots, but you have to look hard to find a tree. With hot...

I live in Omaha. The new stadium is downtown so you usually have to park in lots, some of the Creighton University lots are available as are other business lots. There is some street parking but not a lot. The bulk of the fans from out of town do stay in the hotels that are adjacent, no parking w...

I also wanted to say that yes, Omaha misses LSU. Yes, partly because you are fun. But mostly because your teams are good and your fans treat our city like a good guest should, with respect and courtesy. That is NOT true of all schools, I can attest to that. It is so easy to get behind LSU when we...

I hope you are right. For the record, here are the RULES for the MECA lots which are pretty much just for season ticket holders... http://www.omaha.com/article/20110615/LIVING/706159955 I just didn't see many people even trying to tailgate. They do admit they are turning a blind eye to the alcoh...

There are some tickets available at the box office each day for that day's games. Office opens at 10 for days with afternoon games, noon for days with only evening games. You need to get there early and stand in line. And then there aren't many tickets available. Supposedly, they have tickets "t...

I think we should have called the NCAA's bluff. I don't think they'd have moved the CWS. There was another option to renovate Rosenblatt (I think the big deals are more restrooms, real bullpens, more room in the concourse...), and it would have been much cheaper. There is an over-riding polit...

The Omaha W-H also has a service where they'll print a particular article on card-stock or similar paper so it can be framed. At least a year ago, when I had something reprinted, they did that. I can't remember what that costs....
