Eleven, I ordered mine on Tuesday morning and have to pick them up at will call at MS so I prognosticated as well. Just being there is what it is all about. See you and everyone else there tomorrow. Anybody driven I-70 Westbound this week? Please advise if you have. Last trip to TH a few weeks ago, we bailed at IND39 and took US 40 the rest of the way. Not too sure if that saved time or not. Any thoughts?

2 weeks ago, we went to/from Indy... wasn't bad eastbound, but westbound was HORRIBLE. We saw it on the way over, so we took Ronald Reagan expressway over to 40... and 40 the rest of the way back. I'd suggest everyone avoid I-70 between TH and Indy right now...
 
See you all there!!! Rain or shine it will be great to back at Memorial Stadium with all the Sycamore family. Can not wait.

I'd recommend 40 as well. Westbound traffic has been backed up to at least past Ronald Reagan Parkway all week, so I'd make sure to get off on Ronald Reagan and take it north to 40 and take 40 the rest of the way. From Plainfield, 40 only takes me 5-10 minutes longer and that's compared to a construction free 70. 70 might be better on the weekend, but I personally wouldn't take a chance on it.

Thursday and Friday the construction was only bad for about 3 miles near Ronald Reagan and Plainfield. You can avoid the worst by taking the Ronald Reagan exit near the airport.....but then merging back onto 70 West...you'll bypass the worst of it. Essentially just take the exit for about a mile but then don't turn north on Ronald Reagan...just stay in the far left lane and it shoots you back onto 70 West. Or 40 West works too. There's another I-70 stretch where it slows down before Greencastle, but it's not terrible.
 
Someone please post some photos of the tailgating scene around MS. For those of us out of town, it would be nice to see what has developed with the recent turn-around.

Thx
 
From where I live it is easy to pick up 40 at SR 75. It is like a private road the majority of the time. I could pick up 70 at Cloverdale, but I see no advantage to it.

Pretty disappointed I got turned away from trying to get over by Tom on the West side. Ended up parking over on the East side of the stadium where Greek village is during Homecoming. Looks like I have to get to the stadium even earlier for the YSU game. 2 hours early last year and I could have parked anywhere I pleased.

Do you have a flag or something to identify yourself? I looked on the west side briefly then went into the stadium.
 
I like the picture of the trees running out with little junior league footballer making a tunnel...that is a nice touch! Still don't like the stripe on the pants of the uni's but I am sure I will get used to it. Looks like a good time was had by all! Looked like a good crowd.
