I'm meeting the bus at the Oakbrook Mall. Are we supposed to park in the same location as we did last year for the Iowa and Purdue games ? Thanks.

I would suggest that you call. The meeting location in Oakbrook for the bus to the MACC last year was goofed up. The e-mail they sent for the MACC said to meet at the Marriott, which is across the street. The bus tried to pick us up at the mall. It was a good 15min before the host and driver figured it out.

Amy said that we are supposed to meet across the street from the Marriot ...

What was it for Iowa and Purdue? $40 seems like a lot for NU.

The $40 fee started this year. This is the first trip under the new format.

I recommend taking public transportation. If you're in the suburbs, take the train downtown and then hop on the red or purple line and head up north. It's cheap and you don't have to worry about traffic and parking.

I just received an e mail from Amy confirming that " parking is going to be across from the Marriot in the mall parking lot". Pickup in Oakbrook is at 11:00am. I hope that helps anyone that is planning to park in Oakbrook..
