Great stadium, although generally empty. Nice area right around there too. The fact that it's on a Tuesday night prevents me from coming up.

Wonder if there's any push from the Cleveland alumni chapter to attend.

I hope to get there, but work is looking like it'll intrude on my plans.

I received an email from the alumni association reminding me to buy my tickets for Akron. When I clicked on the link, I was informed that "Ticket sales for this event have ended." Another bang-up job by our alumni office.

I'll just stand outside the gate at InfoCision until someone walks up and offers me a free ticket. It'll happen within 10 minutes, guaranteed.

Any Bobcats aware of any watering hole and food place walking distance from the stadium ?? Our group will need a pre-game meal and a few pre-game beverages!!

For those in the South Dayton/Centerville area, a few of us are getting together at Gameday Grille near the intersection of 48 & 73.

I'll be heading over, as I usually do when OHIO plays at Akron or Kent. Bringing a first-timer to this game, too. I have to lend him some green and white gear. Looking forward to a good game with lots of rushing yards for us - not so much for Zips.

Barley House downtown is about a 15 min walk from the stadium, that is probably the best pregame spot

There are a few spots on E. Exchange right along the stadium. Used to be a BW3's there but I think it's something else now. Two years ago I was able to leave at half time, order a tall draft, drink it, and get back in the stadium without missing a snap.
