Advice needed

[WSC72]

My son and I have the opportunity to attend games this year, at least 2 maybe 3. Have not been to a game since 1981. Thoughts on parking, arrival time, etc.

Well if it's an 11am kick, you probably shouldn't get there at 4pm

Sound advice. Thanks.

The good news is that the stadium is in the same place it was in 1981. If your son is "young", I would consider the train from Coral Ridge Mall. If your son is of tailgating age, I would look to the yards in University Heights (SW of the stadium). Pay the expensive bounty for a small patch of dirt (maybe $30?) and enjoy the atmosphere of being close to the stadium.

My best tip: only the home games are in Iowa City.

You're welcome!

Park at Coral Ridge Mall, walk to train, take train to game and bypass parking mess and enjoy the ride! For 11 a.m. kickoffs, be on train by 9:30 so you can watch warm ups, find your seat, etc.
