Rutgers Game Day at UW

Do they have Starbucks out there? :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:Or should we stick with Seattle's Best?
 
Do you want to be inside a hot musty old building before kickoff or would you rather be getting some fresh air and mingling with Washington fans while pounding beers? If I was spending that kind of time and money to fly to Seattle I'd want to get the most out of my trip. Husky Stadium is like no other college football setting in the world.

Not happy about the indoor ballroom setting for a "tailgate", but perhaps that's the best venue available. The pre-game for the WSU game was excellent- nice outdoor patio, relatively close to the stadium. This looks like a bit of a hike to Husky Stadium. Edit- for us old folks!

The best venue is outside in the fresh air down by the water. Washington fans love mingling with visiting fans and chances are they will invite you on their boat and even give you a spin around the island before or after the game. Right next to the water is a place called 'The Zone' and it's loaded with big screen TV's, tables & chairs, beer booths, coffee booths, food court, etc..

RU fans should be kicking themselves in the butt for not attending this beautiful venue. The city of Seattle and the rest of the Pacific Northwest just add to the experience. Can't wait! :cool2:

Dawg, how's the Parking situation? Do they have cash lots near the stadium ?

I get indoor tailgate is sort of lame. BUT- As someone that has been to a lot of these things at many venues there is something to be said for climate control on really hot or cold days. The number of times being under a big tent lined up with really nice weather are depressingly few.
But I will likely spend the bulk of my pre-game time for this one roaming about.

I've only traveled to those games by boat, but I've heard they expanded the parking since the stadium renovation in '13.
