What about Fat Sal’s down the street? Feels like being back at RutgersNot exactly "nice" restaurants, but I would check out the Venice Whaler at the end of Washington. Food is ok but it's more about the view and the atmosphere.
Right across the street is a little dive bar called Hinano. Still one of my favorite burgers. It's super simple and not fancy, but something about the 50 years of grease on that grill or something.
Ooh! That wasn't there when I lived there. Would definitely get that. Pretty sure Turtle from Entourage owns a stake in that?What about Fat Sal’s down the street? Feels like being back at Rutgers

I'll be going and staying with my daughter and her family, who live about a mile from the Coliseum. Is it better to get tickets through RU or USC?
Thank you!So you want to sit surrounded by Rutgers fans? Buy thru RU
If you don't care about that, buy thru USC or StubHub
FIFYSo you want to sit surrounded by Rutgers fans? Buy thru RU
If want to sit by yourself with nobody by you , buy thru USC.
Where is the Visitor’s seating section in the Coliseum?I'll be going and staying with my daughter and her family, who live about a mile from the Coliseum. Is it better to get tickets through RU or USC?
Everyone can do what they want, but in my experience, buy through Rutgers is not only more expensive but you get worse seats. We don't particularly care about sitting in the Rutgers section. We want good seats with good sightlines. We have enjoyed sitting with visiting fans and chatting with them. Did this at BC and Wisconsin, and we had great seats and a great time.Where is the Visitor’s seating section in the Coliseum?
They don’t draw well so seats near our section should be easy.
Agree. Found out the Visitors section is 101 which is way beyond the End Zone in the far corner of the closed off end of the Coliseum . Not sure you can see past our own 20 yard line. Might be a Stub Hub game.Everyone can do what they want, but in my experience, buy through Rutgers is not only more expensive but you get worse seats.

Only 1.5 miles from the Ritz Carlton in Marina Del Rey. Random crime is everywhere. Sad situation:I plan to attend. My “go to” hotel is the Ritz-Carlton in Marina Del Rey. Not far from the Coliseum. Great area for walking around and you can even walk to Venice Beach easily. Quick drive to Santa Monica.
It could be pricey for a USC home game. (Looks like the cheapest rooms are $785 - $900 with a marina view.)
I was staying two blocks from there when this happened. Unfortunately there’s a police call for some kind of homeless disturbance on the Oceanwalk in Venice almost every day. I’d definitely recommend avoiding the area after dark.Only 1.5 miles from the Ritz Carlton in Marina Del Rey. Random crime is everywhere. Sad situation:
Not familiar with Venice Walk (Someone in this thread saw fit to point out my misuse of "Venice Beach," but that looks like a very nice area. This reinforces our decision to not stay anywhere in/close to LA- we plan to get a cabin in the Topanga Hills and an airport hotel before the flight back the next day.I was staying two blocks from there when this happened.

Fly six hours to sit with Rutgers fans in the worst possible section of the stadium. No thanks.Agree.

Yes plus one making a week vacation out of itI’m thinking about it.
This is the shitty part of away games- the allotments are always in shitty areas. But if you go through a different outlet for a better seat- you may find yourself in the middle of a hostile crowd or at least, just not with other fans that you can cheer withFly six hours to sit with Rutgers fans in the worst possible section of the stadium.

Unless, you have security that won't let you into those seats that are completely empty.In most cases, unless you are dealing with a packed house, you just need to get in the stadium. At that point you can move to wherever you want usually as long as the seats are open.
It will be for anyone traveling to the game from the east coast; which is the topic that started the tread.Not in LA.

Agree completely. Thank you for keeping the thread on topic.incorrect. The topic that started the thread, back on December 30th, 2023, was asking if anyone was going to the USC game and what the plans were. Actually, all 5 pages of the thread talk about hotels, car rentals, ways to get to the stadium and restaurants. Nothing in this thread, except for your "11pm kickoff" post spoke to the game time. This thread is for people going to the game....8pm kickoff
I've been to a lot of road games. Almost always in the RU section. Often middling to bad seats but being with my people (Yes, you my fellow fans) makes up for that.This is the shitty part of away games- the allotments are always in shitty areas.

Is this the start of Air Finklestadt?Me and a guy from the regular tailgate crew are planning to. In all the years I have been following RU this will be my first road trip.
Just starting my instrument training and after I get my ticket will be flying to most of our games at the Midwest stadiums. I have always wanted to go to RU games at Michigan, Wisconsin, Ohio State, Penn State, Minnesota and more.
Metro E line tram to Expo Park/USCWe're getting in on Wednesday afternoon so we should be good by Friday! My only question remaining for us - is how to best get to the stadium and what it's going to be like getting out. Likely relying on mass transit or Uber/Lyft...
It’s Finkenstadt. And he’s still in exile in Canada since the International Bowl.Is this the start of Air Finklestadt?
