Game Info: Sept 13th, Kickoff time: TBD
I plan to buy up to 50 or so tickets. I expect tickets will cost approximately $10-15 each. Parking should be $10 or less. Tailgate menu dependent on kickoff time. Our tix will save us $15-20 per ticket over what SU will charge.
CONOPS: I plan to travel with several cars in a caravan. We will start in Syracuse and make a quick stop in Rochester. The stops will enable fans to park cars overnight and carpool over. We will cross at Niagara Falls and cut across Canada. Expect at least 1 night at a motel and probably 2 nights. The trip from Syracuse will be 7 3/4 hrs plus stops. CMU fans expect an early/mid afternoon kickoff. If that is the case we will leave 2-3pm from Syracuse and Rochester (Henrietta) 75 mins later and make it to Mt. Pleasant or nearby. Some will I know will want to leave after the game for home...others will stay and play a golf course or casino on the way back on Sat or Sun.
Upstate NY fans: How many tix? Interested in caravan and are you leaving from Syracuse or Rochester?
Midwest fans: How many tix do you require? and what tailgate gear can you bring?
Route of drive: http://goo.gl/maps/kfJoO
Most Important: If you drive through Canada you need either a Passport or an enhanced drivers license.

We plan to rollout NLT 0750 on Saturday. We should be at the gate by 0855. CMU fans told me they open the lots exactly 3 hours prior.
