One of the more cheaper sections for me. Not sure which one yet.

So far I'm thinking Endzone, under the scoreboard.

With the B12 maybe watching a big road crowd at PU cannot hurt.

I plan to go. A long-time friend (and PU grad) lives in Lafayette. Kind of funny, he even admits Purdue will probably lose, where many of us are somewhat split on our own chances (most cite CTT, but B1G officiating is my chief concern).
Of all the B-10 schools, I'd consider Purdue and Illinois (with Iowa right there) my favorites. I've made a lot of friends in my field, who attended those schools (one who actually attended both; one for each degree).

Is UC promoting a trip to PU? I would love to see a promo "Show B12 UC travels BIG"
Do an alumni gathering, a bus trip, a chartered plane (for those without a private plane fractional), a caravan to start at campus to I 74.

Not promoting anything yet, but they should.
I'm planning a family trip with the Uncles, Dad, and Cousins.

Wow - between the caravan of drivers, Doss and his private jet, and that dude from earlier in the thread paddling his raft up the Wabash, we have land, air and sea (respectively) covered!
AAAAATTTTAAAACK!

RE: Purdue roadtrip - show other P5's we travel
Just got all the logistics figured out, and it looks like my wife and I will be making the trip to Purdue as well.
This will be my first football game I've seen in a stadium that's not PBS or Historic Nippert.

Tickets are $12-15 on StubHub and it's a 3 hour drive. No reason not to go.

Our abysmal track record on the road under Tubs would be the main reason to stay home. That said, my friends did talk me into going.

No air time left so we will drive.
Miss the BE road trips:
UL always stayed at Courtyard Marriott who would shuttle to game and back.
PU Starwood Hotel was just a couple blocks and a bridge away.
WVU never stayed as I don't think Morganton had hotels.
Been to games at to$u, BGSU, Akron, Marshall, Oxford, Lexington, IU, IL, Toledo, and all those bowls except last year.
Treated hospitable every place but Cowbus and wife refuses to ever go there again.

Breakfast at Triple XXX should be good. We'll be there at 9am with the other Bearcat fans. :)

I saw plenty of reasons not to go tonight when we could have lost to UTM.

Got tickets, parking pass but have to drive as no hours left on plane fraction this quarter.
Any good places to eat in Lafayette or West or just wait until way back and stop in Indy for dinner?

There is an Arby's next to Schoeneys on the right hand side of the street right when you get off of the exit. Both great places to watch the common people in their natural habitats.
