That bus should be leaving before 3:30. Too late, IMO, especially if it ends up being a 7 p.m. kick. For that price, you need more time to tailgate.

You can party on the bus on the way down.

Great idea, imo.

With all the subway alumni, I almost wondered if this was a Rutgers or Michigan production.

This is a good deal . $95 gets you transport and a tailgate party .

I tweeted the same thing to Rich Knupp as soon as I saw that. It is going to take 1.5 hours minimum to get to the stadium. Almost 30 of it from the pick up venue on 34th & 8th to the Lincoln tunnel with Saturday afternoon traffic. he already said they would look into moving the time up.

I will be running a bus trip from Jersey City with the Hudson Cty AOH to the Indiana game. $90 cost will include bus to Greek Church, game ticket, beer and a sandwhich. If this post garners inquiries I will place a separate thread next week.

True.
And will never get there at 4:40pm if leaving Manhattan at 3:30pm.
This crowd will be over 50,000 fans.

34th and 8th is right near the lincoln tunnel....

5-minutes to the tunnel at that time of day on a Saturday afternoon. Leaving the city, not going in, no issues at all. Another 35 to Piscatway once you exit.

They never moved the departure time earlier? Bad move.

Have you guys ever taken Megabus? It can certainly take 30 min to get from 34/8 to the tunnel. Not always, but often enough that you should plan for it.

On a Saturday afternoon in October without bad weather? Rarely. I do it all the time on Saturdays.

And drops you off exactly where you need to be. Far better than coming to the game with a stadium parking pass.

Is this was coming INTO the City I would be more concerned with the timing. Unless there is an accident on the way to or somebody holds the bus up because they are running late I think they'll be okay.
