Ok, as I was unable to make it last time, I am leaning on all of you that were there for advice.

-flights, hotel already booked. Flying in late Sat.

Uber or rental car?

Eateries? Where was everyone’s favorite.

I’m assuming the alumni hosted event Sunday is the place to be?

Ideas to do with kids?

What else am I missing?

We did and are doing a rental car again. Uber is fine, but if you're there for a few days and want to explore, having a car is nice. We did Uber to and from the game though.

Game tickets. Tickets will be available on sites like Vivid Seats and they will be expensive. My advice if you are on a budget is wait until a day or two before the game then grab SRO tickets. They will be available for less than $50 - as low as $15 if you wait until game day. The venue is ideal for SRO. There is a wide concourse all the way around the field with great site angles everywhere.

Rental car. Nothing is on a walkable scale out there. Parking abounds. Even if it's next door it's a long hike and streets are super wide and take forever to cross.

So SRO is full circle? Is is even feasible to follow "pick your team" from yd line to yd line? Everyone probably does that.

The sro space will be pretty filled up so at least in my experience it would be hard to move along with the ball.

Thank you. Actually worded it wrong. I should have said everyone probably tries to do that.

There’s a pretty good air museum at Love Field. Frisco has a cute video game museum in the same building with a huge model train setup that was featured on Strange Inheritance. As you can tell, I like museums.

Went to a place called Whistle Britches that I saw on DDD. Do NOT recommend.

I live just north of Frisco! There is a lot going on down there now.

If you’re looking for a fun place to hang out go to “The Grandscape” in the colony. There is a million things to do there and it’s attached to Frisco!

There is also the brand new PGA Frisco with the Omni hotel just a few minutes from the game. They have restaurants, shops, 2 acre putting green and park that free.

The best bbq around is Hutchins BBQ!

Get a rental car if you can. The Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex is massive and is not easy to get across if you don't have a car. Frisco is basically a Dallas suburb and can only really be reached by car

My wife and I are seeing if we can get it all aligned to go. We are supposed to start back to school then but we're seeing how we can manipulate it to go to Frisco..... we shall see.
