Ha. We shall see. I'm slightly biased and LOVE the Phog. As stated, I truly am excited to see Hilton and I'm not coming as one of those arrogant jerks. I want to be friendly and have a good time.
In terms of parking, the hotel I'm staying at says it's only 1.3mi away from ISU campus so I was hoping to just be able to walk from there instead of dealing with arena parking.
I think he is just messing with you. 203 is behind the hoop up top. 213 is better.
Hey all,
I come in peace! haha. I'm a KU alum who will be making the trip to Ames for the game on Monday. I'm not one of those ****** who's going to trash talk and be obnoxious. I'm going to enjoy the atmosphere and see a great game between two terrific teams.
I was wondering if you all had any suggestions as far as places to check out, or good restaurants to stop for a bite to eat and a beer. Any suggestion for a good bar for after the game for a couple of drinks. As I said, I'm not interested in dealing with people being rude and wanting to start problems, just want to enjoy my time and watch a great game.....so if there's any spots I should avoid that would be helpful too.
Thanks,
Brian
Thats not a horrible walk, but 11pm in Jan it could be really cold. And if it's the hotel I'm thinking of on S Duff, the walk is dark and I'm not sure there's sidewalks the whole way.
If you are looking for the other Jayhawk fans at the game they are easy to find. Just look for the black and white striped shirts.
Ok, thanks for the insight. I live in Chicago now where it was just -50 with the wind chill. I survived that so I think I can survive whatever weather Ames has waiting for me
Nah, I'd rather look for people with "9 consecutive big12 champions" shirts.
May I ask how you were referred to Cyclone Fanatic? No answer required, obviously, just curious. I like checking out other teams' websites, too.
Be prepared. Many/most of us have been waiting for this one all year long. Good shirt for a nice reaction.
I've calculated that I don't need my voice until Wednesday, except for some trash talk with one of my students on Tuesday, since he's a KU fan. Sad, sad choice.
Also, yeah, I planned on covering up the KU attire when I go out after the game. Last thing I need is some crazed Cyclone fan verbally attacking me, Lol.
I'm obviously unfamiliar with how seating is set up in Hilton. I'm in sec 213 row 11. Will I have an ok view?
Nah, I'd rather look for people with "9 consecutive big12 champions" shirts.
