How far do you "commute" to home games?

[ImperialOrange]

81.. ugh. I drove to VA and back from Albany last month and PA is like the thickest state ever.

Not compared to 81 the entirety of VA. That trek is brutal

 

[ImperialOrange]

You have to be close to me if you’re going up 81. Harrisburg or just south (I83) or west?
Don’t worry…not stalking! It is almost exactly 250 miles from my door to my parents in Fayetteville.

No worries at all, glad I'm not the only one with good taste in fan hood around these parts. 25 SE of you in the other famous Central PA chocolate town. 501 and 645 north to 81 and turn my mind off until NY state border then drop down 10-15 mph.

Gotta be Wilbur! Yum!
But…how do you turn your mind off on 81 in PA when all you hear/feel is: Ba-dum…Ba-dum…Ba-dum, mile after mile?

I know we've got people here who buy season tix and probably live pretty far outside the immediate 315 area (i.e. Boston, Buffalo, etc.). Just curious how far some of you travel in to watch and support Syracuse football.

30 minutes one way.

 

[thecuseman]

247 miles - - 4 hours from Jersey.

 

[tipphill]

190 miles one way from bethlehem pa .usually drive up and back in the same day

3 beers.

 

[CuseGrad94]

This year im going to 4 home games. First three plus ND and the Clemson game for sure. Hope to get to another way and home

Damn, now I feel inadequate. That is impressive for sure, I need to get my act together.

 

[FrancoPizza]

13 minutes with 690-81.
14 minutes without that harrison st exit.

 

[CuseGrad94]

918 Miles from Wildwood, Mo. only making the FSU game. I now need therapy due to kcsu who lives further and is making way more games than I.

 

[TexanMark]

I just learned today that Middletown to Cuse can be had for less than $250 round trip and got my wheels turning...

Wouldn't it be easier to drive the 4 hours?

I mean that drive up to the top of mountain in Frackville for McDonald's is epic.

 

[TexanMark]

270 miles from Long Island (Nassau County.) I'll probably go to four games this year.

Bonus Points for driving through the City.

I've sent messages to Southwest and Breeze they need a Friday and Sunday nonstop between ISP and SYR

 

[NailstheCusefan12]

Turned a 4.5 hour drive each way into a 4.5 mile Uber ride each way. Can’t wait for Louisville.

When we played Tennessee in 2001, I drove the I-66 portion (not great either). But then shuffled drivers when we got to 81, and opened the cooler.

Made it tolerable. Well, not for everyone in the car.

You move to CNY?

 

[Bayside44]

335 miles….barefoot.

 

[NailstheCusefan12]

You move to CNY?

Yes sir. Been back for a few years now.

 

[NineOneSeven]

Yes sir. Been back for a few years now.

Excellent... my next step I think.

 

[DoctahLexus]

20 minute walk to the dome. 35 minute off balance stumble back home.

 

[corpjet]

How many games are you targeting?

3 games at the Dome is the plan (Purdue, Virginia and ND) and hopefully a sunny warm weather Bowl Game

Bummer Purdue and ND aren’t away games for you!

 

[Offthedome]

That’s about #5 on my list.

The tractor trailers, dead deer, and that Scooby Doo foggy mountain range between Harrisburg and Hazelton are my top 3.

NY state trooper quotas would have to be #4.

My daughter graduated from Lehigh. PA roads are some baaaaaaaaad roads.
