🏈 Michigan game rollcall

[planomateo]

just curious who's gonna make the trip out to Dallas?

I'll definitely be here...haven't found tickets yet, I'm still trying to work an inside angle w/ the Cowboys (haven't been successful yet)...otherwise I'm buying from a ticket agency before the game outside the stadium.

I'm hoping to make the trip. Trying to get mine with my season tickets!

 

[Eabama]

Hopefully I will be able to make the trip. The tickets will be the tricky part.

this.....

I was able to get VT and Clemson games through my season tickets and ATL is a lot closer than Dallas. I figure I should be high enough in the pecking order to do that for this game as well. At least that is what I'm banking on.

**UPDATE***
Got tickets now and am trying to figure out where I'm staying. I think I may have that figured out too, but not sure yet. I will be there. No doubt.

I am planning to take a vacation in Sept. anyway. Plus I have family out there that I can stay with. The only thing I need to look into is tickets. If I can score one,yes ,I'll be there.

 

[Brandon Van de Graaff]

I'm pretty sure I recall Doemasters saying he was gonna fly me out there and take me to the game. I've never been to an Alabama game.

You're right...said he'd do that right after he buys you a Chevy Volt next month.

 

[Beccafries]

I plan to be in the HOUSE if I can get us tiks!!

Roll Chevy Roll...

:icon_rolleyes: would love to make this game

 

[UAgrad93]

Wife put in our order for our season tickets and surprised me with this game. Needless to say, I'm pumped!!

 

[planomateo]

cool, I was skiing in Colorado when the damn Cowboys season ticket holders got dibs...pissed my connection is an ER doc who forgot about me.

now I'm stuck purchasing online - will wait til the day of the game and purchase, can't justify $500 a seat for this game....didn't pay that for either of the 2 MNC games.

......which brings up the next point, 2 crystal balls in 3 years (damn, pretty cool to say that, will someone give our coaches a raise and extend Saban til 2020 ) :muahaha:

 

[rammerjammer]

Right now, it is 200 point minimum to get 2 tickets. (I'm at 123) My other two tickets I get are from the lady that sits beside me and I think she has enough points for 2. So it looks like I will be there, just a question of 4 or 2 tickets at this point.

 

[bamaraider]

I will and to add insult to injury to the Michigan fans, my best friend is coming who is an Ohio State grad :grnbiggrin:

 

[It Takes Eleven]

I'm a go for Dallas.

 

[Tide Rolling Through MD]

I'll be there. Does anyone know what hotel they are staying at?

 

[LBS]

Being offered the chance to order tickets is not that same thing as actually getting the tickets.

I spoke with the TidePride office today (June 20th) and to date WHO gets the tickets HAS NOT been determined. (This holds true for all the road game orders.) A determination of who gets tickets for all games of interest will be made by the end of next week.

I am sitting in the mid 200 point range FWIW. The TidePride office speculated that I stood a good chance of getting the Michigan tickets but a lesser chance of the other tickets, as the others saw higher demand than did the Michigan game.

That noted, anyone have any suggestions about finding a place to stay while in Texas?

do you want to be close the stadium or do you mind driving? Do you want to be close to things to while in Dallas or are you just hear for the game?

 

[UAgrad93]

We are flying in early Friday and won't leave til Mon. Anyone got some sites we should definitely hit?

 

[planomateo]

some quick ideas...not sure what everyone's into.

Jerry World is next Texas Rangers stadium (but Rangers are in Cleveland). Six Flags/Hurricane Harbor is close to the stadium as well.
Fort Worth has some cool museums and the rodeo (not sure the schedule though)
Dealey Plaza (http://www.jfk.org/)
Live music/food - Greenville Avenue - Addison has some cools places too
Flying Saucer in Addison - any beer you can think of http://www.beerknurd.com/
Southfork Ranch (for Dallas fans) - its up close to Plano - about 30 miles north of Jerry World.
Fair Park (Cotton Bowl) has some museums around it.

There are a few tollways here in Dallas, believe most don't take change anymore, they just mail you a bill based on your license plate if you don't have a tolltag.
