Full disclosure... I am a Penn Stater. I am coming to the game, and was hoping to get some tailgating advice from anybody willing to help me out. Perhaps this isn't the proper forum, but I haven;t had much luck anywhere else. A few questions:
1. According to everything I've read, your lots don't open until 3 hours before game time. I've also heard that this is not true. Can anyone shed any light on this? Since this game is at 8:00 p.m., I'd like to get the grill fired up and beers cracked by noon-ish.
2. The one thing I have heard is that traffic before the game can be a nightmare. Would time should I tell my group to get where I want them to be?
3. Where should I park? I studied the lot maps, but they don't make much sense to me. Do I need to get a parking pass in advance? If this 3 hour rule is in effect, does that mean I can't get a parking pass on gameday?
Any advice is appreciated. And, if you're interested, it's worth a beer or 5 at my tailgate. I know there's a lot of animosity directed toward Penn Staters, but you'llfind we're not all bad...
