COLLEGE FOOTBALL 2024: Who wants Me???

Post by Dr.Corona »

:lol:
So my buddy & I are trying to prepare a road trip to a town near YOU :pirate: to catch a game.
Last year took us down to Oxford Mississippi & the Grove for the Ole Miss/LSU game.
Looking for any recommendations or pholks with connections or comments regarding YOUR home turf!

I've laid out a number of recommendations/possibilities to him for this year in which dates & other logi$tics always are a factor.
As we try & hit a different venue than where we've been before, here are some of the preliminary places I've pegged as possibilities for 2024 in which of some of these are probably longshots: [smilie=noeyedear-shrugging.gif]


State College Pennsylvania

Lexington Kentucky
Norman Oklahoma
Stillwater Oklahoma
Clemson South Carolina
Tallahassee Florida
Athens Georgia
Columbia Missouri

I don't see Mount Pleasant, MI on your list. :lol:

You can catch a game and be home to sleep in your own bed.

Coach Gundy has a lot to work with this season!

Lewis Field when I was there

Image

Has grown up to become Boone Pickens Stadium

Image

It's amazing what 40 years and a few (hundred million) dollars can do!

Eskimo Joe's was a tiny little bar within walking distance of the stadium when I was there, like BPS the complex has grown.. They will be celebrating their 50th anniversary next year. The place is packed on game day but if you can get in, order the chili cheese fries!
Image

Hideaway Pizza https://www.thehideaway.net/ moved from a small house on 3rd Street to a large location across the street from campus in the early 80's. They have great pizza and now have several locations through Oklahoma. We always order Hideaway on our first night back in Oklahoma to visit family.

My favorite watering hole on Washington Street is gone to make room for the expansion of DuPree's Sporting Goods (a positive change), but there are still a couple of places to get a beer in town. Iron Monk Brewing is a good one, I believe their beer is also available at OSU venues.

American Eagle connects Stillwater with American Airlines at DFW. The airports in Tulsa and OKC are just over an hour from Stillwater and are served by many airlines.

There is a little item of interest to Detroit Lions fans on the west side of the stadium.

I'm not sure how the Tulsa fares compare but Tulsa does have something that OKC does not - Margaritaville!

Another one that's gonna put me on blood pressure medicine. Now, on to Texas A&M. It's going to be a nasty dog fight.

I HAVE been to MT Pleasant wayyyy back some 30+ years ago . Thankfully I wasn’t driving as I was farrrr from sober. My wife told me that my buddy who I went with was a bad influence on me. I kinda have to agree. I’m pretty sure I’ve only seen him one time since.
BTW….Chips lost……I think 🤔
