Hello... I'm making the trip to South Bend in a few weeks with 5 buddies from college and beyond. 3 Sooners, a Georgia fan, a Texas fan, and an Irish fan we felt obligated to let tag along.
Looking forward to the trip. Taking an RV and driving from Dallas. Staying at a campground in Niles, Michigan. We have our tickets and plan to tailgate on Saturday. Unfortunately don't have much planned beyond that.
Any tips or general info is much appreciated!
Pffft, those all sounds like great fans, but who let the Georgia guy in?
I'm just kidding. I do like Texas and OU fans though, almost always been classy aside from the occasional trolls that show up here. Great people in person.
blueNDgold44 is pretty spot on. Personally, I always like listening to the band warm up, listening to the Trumpets Under the Dome (About an hour and a half before kickoff in the Golden Dome, it fills up fast), and watching the band march into the stadium right after. I'm not sure if you guys will enjoy all that, but theres a lot to see at that end of campus and it's worth checking out the Basilica, Grotto, and Dome anyway if you're in the vicinity. A lot of people will be at that end of campus just before kickoff, they line the sidewalk in hundreds for the band about an hour before the game begins.
