A lot of info for "first timers" at TCF. Some new info for long time Gopher fans too.

The new Green Line is probably the easiest way to get to and from the game. You can purchase a day pass for $6 or a six-hour event pass for $4 on weekdays, $3.50 on weekends. Trains stop in front of the stadium every 10 to 15 minutes at the Stadium Village Station on 23rd Avenue on the south side of the stadium.
Fans can park in a downtown St. Paul ramp and hop the train from a downtown station. Off Kellogg Boulevard, the Union Depot maintains 750 parking spots in four lots. Fees vary. A less expensive option: St. Paul street meters are free on Sundays and after 5 p.m. Monday through Friday. More information about the Green Line here..
Gates open two hours before kickoff. Each ticket indicates the gate to enter closest to your seat. It should be easier to get in; there are nine gates and 90 points of entry, compared to six and 64 at the Metrodome. And TCF Bank Stadium has something the Metrodome didn't: escalators. Plus, five elevators, compared to..
Concourses won't be heated during the winter, but restrooms and the areas around concessions stands will be. Concourses are wider (50 feet) than the Metrodome (24 feet), and there are lots more restrooms (113 to the Metrodome's 30). Team officials promise a wider variety of food choices.
