I will be in the midwest the entire month of October and was seriously considering going to the RU game in Madison the week before the RU-Michigan game in Ann Arbor which I will be attending. My friends at UW basically said stay away from Madison the weekend of the RU game (Freakfest) . I went to UW for graduate school back in the mid-60's when there was no such thing and football weekends were pretty lame (UW was awful then) and haven't been back for a game since.
Being of a certain age (like over 70) has dampened my enthusiasm for such things like the mayhem that purportedly goes with Halloween weekends in Madison the last few years.
Should I take their advice seriously and not go or is the mayhem overstated? Any first hand experiences to report? Thanks in advance.
