All Things Northwestern Road Trip Game: Travel Info, Best Bars, Itineraries

[THE Chitown Gopher]

Me too 134 Row 32. I must have way better seniority than you.

I'm looking to get some tickets and want to sit with others wearing Maroon and Gold. Is section 134 the spot to be?

it is odd they would put on on the NW sideline (according to the map on stubhub)...

They flipped what side of the field visitors are on since 2013 game. That means we are on shady side, not sunny. Sections 133 and 134 should be gopher fans, those sections will be pretty full , but guessing empty seats in 132 next door.

According to the seating chart on NW's website, about 95% of section 133 is unsold right now. My guess is they could just purchase the cheapest tickets you can find regardless of section and there will be plenty of room to move over to 133 or 132.

Looking at StubHub and the cheapest tickets are $19 (lower endzone 115) but need to be shipped via UPS (which won't work).

Any idea what the scalping scene is like? Would I be able to get 3 or 4 tickets reasonably priced?

Just bought a pair on Stub Hub...plenty of good tickets out there. Lots of open seats so we should be able to move to wherever there is a cluster of Gopher fans. GO GOPHERS!!!

Join us in Section 133! According to the NU ticket website, there are a LOT of empty seats in section 133, which is right next to the Visitor sections (134 and 135). Supposedly the Gopher's ticket allotment sold out, so there should be a lot of Gopher fans in that part of the stadium.

Made it safely to Evanston. Can't wait to see all the Gopher fans tomorrow. Should be a good game.

Can you give some bar names. I've yelped the area and googled and everyone I go to says they open at 11:00am or 11:30am on Saturday. Starting at McCormick Plaza and radiating out I just can't seem to find anything.
