Got my Maryland tickets!

- Start date
This oversight will be duly noted in your performance review.
Maryland fans will be gone by halftime. You will have a section all to yourself.
It’s getting to be a lot worse than my NCAA MBB Tourney picks. Wow, pathetic.
We went to the Maryland game a couple of years ago. I was genuinely surprised at how beautiful the campus is. We stayed in DC and took the train to the game. A unique experience. Enjoy!
Been there at the blowouts, can confirm. Boy, there’s not many things in life better than Penn State winning a blowout.
College Park is a dump. It’s about 2 blocks. Walk the wrong way on Route 1 and good luck.
It's even better walking through the campus of Auburn after blowing them out, and they are still nice to you for coming all the way down to little ole All Barn.
Where do visitors sit at Maryland football games?
Visitor Section - There is Visitor Seating in Sections 2 and 302.
Call the SECU ticket office to confirm
I just now checked UMd Ticket Office and Seat Geek turned out to be a real bargain. I’ll be looking for a parking pass down the road, it’s too pricy for me right now.
To umd: Fire up the MATHS.

You'll get to enjoy a performance from the Blue Band, that's one of their two away games this year. OSU is the other.
We have a kid in the band, look for him -- he'll be in blue and white.

Agree that the surrounding area is a dump but the campus grounds and buildings were surprising to me.
We went to the Maryland game 3 or 4 years ago. Went to the pep rally beforehand. Stayed at the Hotel at the University of Maryland (was surprised that a room was available and we got a good deal.) The campus was nice; the game was better.
We also went to the game in Baltimore a few years back. Another good time, but playing Maryland is almost always going to be a good time!
Don't bother with a parking pass. Park for free along University Dr, I believe it's Rt 193. It's a short walk to the stadium and easy out after the game, especially once the MD fans have left in the 3rd quarter.
That is our plan, stay in D.C. and take train from D.C. to campus. How far is the train station from the stadium?
I’ve seen that but those spots go fast and I’d prefer a sure thing.
Assuming when you all say your taking the train you mean the Metro, the Colleage Park Metro station is a good ~1.5+ miles from the stadium. I would say a 30-40 minute walk each way.
Yeah, catching the bus back to the metro station after the game can be tricky. Tried that once, f that. I’ll be splurging for a parking pass.
MaconNitt & I and 4 compadres chipped in for a parking pass in Terrapin Club 1C, close to stadium. We will be there and are you are more than welcome to tailgate with us. We couldn’t find you the last time we were there. Don’t know where our tickets are yet. We are staying at the Best Western Plus on Baltimore Ave.

It’s a 10-minute walk to the edge of campus. The stadium is about 30 mins. We got there early and walked around campus before meeting up with some friends.
Here’s my post. https://wanderingspectator.wordpress.com/2021/11/09/triumph-over-the-terrapins/
This would be great, thanks. (Bars are a chore for me, just too loud.) I’m psyched.
