12,000? Rookie.
Headed up Thursday too, I'll be the guy in the FSU jacket who looks cold and miserable
God bless those of you going to the game. I don’t even have the testicular fortitude to watch the game on TV. FSU football is just a miserable experience here of late.
We go for whole experience. The game is just the reason we're in that particular area.
My two best friends and I arrive in Chicago at noon on Thursday! They are expecting snow for Friday and Saturday. We are taking the bus to the game run by Gameday Excursions and sponsored by Warchant and others!
So, reading between the lines, there will be no empanadas at this tailgate? Dammit!
No way! I will be in a warm heated tent with food and beer just south of the stadium in a random parking lot.
We also signed up for a Yacht Party Friday in Lake Michigan as one of the many events associated with this company. For a Miami girl who is not used to cold -- being on a boat in Lake Michigan in snow will be fun and cold but you only live once. 
We're driving over early and hope to park in one of the free lots and walk or shuttle over. I'll try to crash your party.No way! I will be in a warm heated tent with food and beer just south of the stadium in a random parking lot.
Send me your cell via FB messenger or on this sites messenger so we can try and connect.
We bought the tailgate too. Was glad to read the tents are heated!No way! I will be in a warm heated tent with food and beer just south of the stadium in a random parking lot.
That's the only way to approach this game. In a way, it's actually a good thing: You can go and just enjoy the experience without any anxiety or pre-game jitters.
Now we are planning on going to Ohio State-Michigan State at noon thenhead to South Bend. Making it a double header Saturday!!
That is an awesome double header covering old school teams. What an awesome adventure. Hats off to y’all an hopes for a great time to be had by all!
Every now and again I do
But...we have to leave that game early. Not leaving ours until the clock is 0:00
Of the fourth quarter?Every now and again I do

Stand skrong. Kudos to fans like you who travel... My hat is off in praise.Every now and again I do

Abso freakin lewdly! I never leave our games early.
He on the other hand, has a 2 score rule. If a team is up 2 scores in the last quarter or period (big hockey fan too), he leaves. I am attempting to break him of that habit.
If there is anyone that needs a couple, message me. I found 2 seats in the preferred section behind the bench that I couldn’t pass up, so I have two extra I’m selling for $75 per ($145 face).

Me +6 will be there. Don't arrive in Chicago until Friday evening. Rented a van to drive to the stadium because I was outvoted on the booster bus. What lots will everyone be in?
Flying in a just after noon on Friday. Also taking a van to the game with a few buddies that also didn't want to go on the gameday excursions bus package or tailgate. I think some people just don't like for others to be in control of their schedule so want to leave or stay whenever they want not on the bus schedule. But my thought was that will be a miserable drive back to Chicago that late after the game. Which one of you is going to be doing that? LOL!
Exactly! Plus it sounds like the buses serve snacks and drinks on the way home. Oh well. We had a volunteer who is obsessively dieting right now say he would drive back.
I don't think we will make the welcome party put on by the Windy City Seminole Club Friday night but we are going to take the group to Gino's East in the Loop.
Yep, it's actually nice to go to the game now knowing FSU is going to get destroyed and don't have any anxiousness at all prior to a big game.
