Hi All;

We're coming up for Homecoming and do not have tickets, so we are wondering what are the best sports bars for watching Bison games???? Thanks

BWW right across from dome is good... Never watched a bison game there, easy access from tailgating though and lots of TVs.

Some bars might be classier than others, but there is a good bet that every bar in town will have the game on. I like the Buffalo Wild Wings idea myself. Bar/grill type place that is good for hanging out at. On a positive note, the one by the Dome allows you the chance to go to the tailgating lots for a bit before going back to the bar.

Don't give up on finding tickets in the parking lot before the game.

Are you coming back this year? I thought maybe since they changed the parade back to the way it was when you were in school you would be excited to see it again :)

I've watched a couple of games from the north BWW. You can tailgate all day and then walk over to watch the game. Every time I've done this there are surprisingly few people in there. Maybe 1/4 to 1/2 full.

I would actually try walking up to the ticket gate before the stadium opens and ask them if they have "Obstructed View" tickets left. They dont "sell" them unless you specifically ask for them as far as I know. It has NEVER failed when I've gone- even during "sold out" games. Just get the tickets and go chill in the empty student section seats. No one will think anything of it I promise. Brought my Dad with me last week and the other students loved it haha, people giving him high fives etc. You can definitely get inside if you still want and the seats arent bad at all!

Ha ha. I'm only a couple years older than you. The parade has always been Saturday morning for me. I hope this change works out, but I prefer Saturday morning.

I wish I could make it but my college crew was given a game every week this year. No breaks until possibly Thanksgiving and I hope to be working a playoff game that weekend. This weekend 2 top 10 NAIA schools! Should be a great one.

Mezzaluna, Monte's, HoDo, Maxwell's are good fine dining options.
