My wife, daughter, and her boyfriend went and it was a horrible experience. I had to stay home because my Dad was in very poor health. At the third quarter two rows about 10 people of drunken fans in the PA section were escorted out of the stadium. My family was moved away to another section. My wife could have pressed charges against the woman whom was touching my daughter's boyfriend. It was the first away game, and the family lives in MD. Older brother is a Penn State Graduate.
Roll Call - Who's heading to the Byrd this weekend?
- Thread starter NittanyLion15
- Start date
We were also there and had no problems with Twerps fans. I guess it's hit or miss. They may have been extra excited about winning given the travesty in 2014. I suspect that they'll come to this game hoping to keep the score w/i a 30 point margin.
Heading down Saturday morning from the Reading Area. Just parking in that Terrapin Garage (that doesn’t allow tailgating) Hoping to see a lot of PSU tailgating

Coming solo from Middletown, DE. I'm looking for a ticket and a friend. Nobody else wants to go.
Does anyone know what the metro parking lot situation is like on the last 5 stops of the green line on game day? I in the suburbs of Virginia, so I'm either going to have to ride the metro for 1 hr 30 min from end to end or I am going to drive 45 min to one of the stops in MD. For those who have lived around DC longer, do you think I should drive to a closer stop or ride the yellow line from Virginia?
It's free parking on the weekends except for at College Park metro on game days. So I would drive to the end of the green line and park there, that way you don't have to transfer. I don't know how parking is on that end, but if it's like the Maryland end of the green line, there is PLENTY.
Was at the game at Ravens Stadium, don't recall even running into a Terps fan. Will be there Saturday with Mrs. Banger and another couple...WE ARE!!
Unable to make this game but was able to purchase 8 tickets for my son and a group of his friends to go in my place ...... no doubt they will be making more noise them I could. WE ARE !!!!
Terp fan here. Take the Metro all the way to the College Park stop. Free shuttle buses run often from there up to the stadium. You can tailgate anywhere on campus you want, alcohol is fine, no hassles for open containers.
Pregame lunch is good at Looneys or Bobby Flay's Burgers on Route One near main entrance to campus. You can walk to the stadium from there.
Inside stadium, they sell all kinds of domestic, import and craft beer at concession stands and beer kiosks. There is a pretty large variety of food items sold throughout the stadium. Behind section 16, there is a Maryland Pride food concession selling Maryland crabcakes, crab soup, crab pretzels, Maryland Southern BBQ, and some other good offerings.
People are not going to hassle you or your kids.
Have a great time.

Generally, what is ticket availability like outside the stadium on game day? If it is not a sellout, can you buy walkups or do you have to negotiate with scalpers exclusively on game day?
Thx in advance!
Thx in advance!
You can park for free along Route 193 leading up to the stadium. You can also pay to park at the golf course clubhouse lot.
Curious if anyone knows the best place to find people selling tickets? We have two additional joining our group and wanted to stay away from paying the markup on the ticket sites.
Section 22. Look for the guy with the Slippery Rock hat, glasses, leather jacket, and the hot wife.
Leading the We Are cheer in Looney’s . Packed with PSUers
Was at the game....can’t say I walked everywhere, but that was a pretty lame college football environment. The stadium itself is fine, but the location is brutal. It is surrounded and there is no real atmosphere there.
Awesome! I was there participating in the chant haha.
We really need a BWI McAndrew Board logo pin, button, t-shirt, flag.... so that we can identify other board members.
Am guessing that was you seated against the back wall? You were the one yelling, "Urban Meyer is the devil" to the OSU lady at the table next to ours???
