Rise and shine! This party starts with a $20 early bird special that will get you any brunch item, bloody marys and mimosas for the first hour! No worries if you want to catch some extra ZzZ’s, they’re firing up the smoker to keep you full of BBQ all day long. Live music starts at noon and you’ll have the whole parking lot to keep the celebration going after game time.
Your Play-by-Play
1. Be a Team Player
Traveling with a group? Fare split the trip so no one gets stuck with the bill.
2. Run a Good Route
Requesting from Cotton Bowl Stadium? For a smooth pick up, drop your pin on S. Fitzhugh Ave and then walk towards gates 9 & 10. Feel free to request a ride and give your driver a call to confirm pick up location, as traffic will be quite heavy.
3. Listen to Your Coach
After you request, you’ll get your driver’s name, picture, and license plate number. When the car rolls up, make sure the information matches up to ensure you’re not offsides.
4. Give Your Play-by-Play
If you have fellow fans waiting for your arrival at the tailgate, let ‘em know you’re coming by sharing your ETA.
5. Don’t Get Blindsided
This weekend is one of the biggest weekends of the year. Be on the lookout as surge pricing may be active. As usual, you’ll always be notified in advance if prices are higher than normal.
