For those that attended a Rose Bowl game involving Penn State, did you book it all on your own or did you book and travel with a group?
I know people that have done both with each having their advantages and disadvantages. Much cheaper to do on your own but takes a lot of work and research. Services are expensive but so much easier to click and pay and you are done. The services can arrange shuttles from hotel to parade to the stadium and back to the hotel etc just makes it easier but you do pay for that convenienceFor those that attended a Rose Bowl game involving Penn State, did you book it all on your own or did you book and travel with a group?
Be careful with car rentals these days. A bunch of people stayed in Atlanta for the Auburn game and rented cars to drive to the game only to find out the rental services were out of cars even though they pre paid.Just wish car rental prices weren't so ridiculous
Yes basicallly the second it is announced rock and roll and book it. Don’t wait a second!Much cheaper on your own--but u have to book air fare early --that goes up quickly
I just looked at rental car rates and they seem to be down a bit compared to when we were there in the summer.Did it on my own. Flew into Vegas and rented a car. Took my time and spent 2 days in La. drove back to Vegas and flew out of McCarran and returned the rental car. Liked staying away from LAX stuff.
Saved more than enough money on the plane ticket (LV vs LA) to pay for the car.....which I would have rented in LA anyway.I just looked at rental car rates and they seem to be down a bit compared to when we were there in the summer.
Rose Bowl is a dump compared to watching a game at Jerry World.09 game planned on my own. Wife, brother and SIL. Rented a car. Stayed north of LA on beach in Oxnard. Drove in for events. Enjoyed pep rally at Beverly Hills HS fb field. Was stopped at a red light next to Paris Hilton in her pink Bentley returning from that. Fortunate enough to get an invite to Alumni event in Beverly Hills at a $13 million alum’s house. Alumni association folks and coaches were there. Joe didn’t show but JayPa and Bradley were there. Got to the lots early and had a good tailgate. Was not impressed by the stadium. Narrow tunnel entry to seats. Old facilities. Game sucked.
Does Dallas have a Rose Parade, oceanfront restaurants, or world-recognized entertainment facilities?Rose Bowl is a dump compared to watching a game a Jerry World.
Same, same, and same.On my own. And this was for the 1995 Rose Bowl, so the internet was not all that common back then.
And yes, I did walk uphill in the snow barefoot both ways in order to book my trip.
But Dallas has Dealey Plaza. I visit the 6th Floor Museum and wish you were driving by in a convertible.Does Dallas have a Rose Parade, oceanfront restaurants, or world-recognized entertainment facilities?
A bowl game visit is far more than the game itself. You must have gone el-cheapo in LA
Gee, that's not over the line at all. You really are an a$$.But Dallas has Dealey Plaza. I visit the 6th Floor Museum and wish you were driving by in a convertible.
Very poor taste. I hope you are no longer in a position of having any influence on the lives of youth. Would you stand up in front of a bunch of adults at a PTA meeting or school gathering and make a remark like that? Think twice, post once.But Dallas has Dealey Plaza.

Thanks, i appreciate that. Broken hearted that you don't approve.Gee, that's not over the line at all. You really are an a$$.

On our own. Had a blast. Airbnb Silver Lakes? Twenty minutes out of LAFor those that attended a Rose Bowl game involving Penn State, did you book it all on your own or did you book and travel with a group?

In 2017, my son and I did a lot of research to find the most economical and easy trip and did the following:This year, if we get Rose Bowl, my plan is to fly to Vegas, rent a car like I always do there, and then drive to Pasadena the morning of the game. Maybe stay at a hotel an hour away that night. Maybe drive back to Vegas after the game. I've done all 3 Rose Bowls by booking it myself and saved quite a bit of money. Just wish car rental prices weren't so ridiculous. Go through Priceline or Expedia. They're all about the same price.
