The above graphic showing the time it takes to walk to the stadium is wrong. I made it from the Campus Green Garage to Nippert in 2 minutes and 22 seconds flat.

Tailgating seems difficult here unless you are UC season ticket holder.

Anyone have any suggestions?

You can do prepaid parking in garages.

Don't know if they do this for UC football games, but for FC Cincinnati matches Hughes High School across Clifton Avenue has cheap parking. Short walk uptown if you're not into the tailgate scene.

I was told Ohio was given tickets across sections 103 to 109.

That’s cool. Basically from 10 yardline to 10 yardline. I was figuring they’d put OU fans up high in the corner seats like most teams, including Ohio, do to opposing fans. I think the 110 is in section 101 or 102. Pretty excited that I picked up seats on 50 yardline (Section 106) for $35 + stubhub fees.

There really are no high corner seats a Nippert, great venue.

For those not tailgating should we pick a bar to gather in prior to the game?

There are a few on Calhoun St which borders the campus on the south side.

I assumed corners as well. It'd be awesome for more schools to do this.

Should be a good Ohio crowd. Great atmosphere for college football.

On that note, I would check out Adriatico's. Probably the best pizza in the city for my money.

I see they still have the name "Marge Schott" on their baseball facility.

That's a real shame.

As horrible as Marge was in certain aspects, she donated a ton of money to the university and the city of Cincinnati. She gave $2 million to UC in her will.
