OSU Students Making First Trip to KState
« on: October 28, 2014, 02:13:51 PM »
Hello everyone,

Before I start, congrats on beating OU.  I thoroughly enjoyed watching.  My friend and I are seniors at OSU and will be making the trip to Manhattan to watch you guys embarrass us this Saturday.  We will be staying with my friend's uncle in Wichita on Friday night and will be staying at a hotel to be determined on Saturday. My friend has a parking ticket close to the stadium and I assume we'll tailgate for a while there.  Do you guys have any suggestions on possible restaurants to visit prior to kickoff and what bars might be fun to go to after?  It'd be greatly appreciated.

the bars are all right next to each other.  pick one.  if you don't like it, pick a different one.

not rocket science here.

Having spent time in both places, I think you'll find Manhattan to be very similar to Stillwater.  You should feel right at home.  Just do what feels natural.

definitely stay at the Bluemont hotel by Aggieville, should be pretty easy to get in Saturday

obviously for eats go to Kite's for the burger, or Rusty's Mex Grill for the chimichangas, both are in Aggieville and both are very authentic.

There's a statue of Ernie Barrett on the West side of the stadium. Usually visiting fans meet up there for pregame high fives and stuff about an hour before kickoff. Check it out!

If you are unable to find a hotel in Manhattan check out nearby Junction City. It's more or less a nicer, more affluent suburb of the Little Apple.

Second this.  Great and unique tradition for fans.

Tickets were given to me as a gift.  Believe they're on the 40 yard line so I didn't want to pass them up.  I also enjoy seeing different college atmospheres.  I'm a big sports fan and enjoy watching the sport in person better, even if my team is likely to lose.  Just want to support my Cowboys

You should have come down to Fort Worth and watched them got their asses kicked.  You would have at least had some things to do afterwards.  Now all you have to look forward to is an ass kicking.

No, but he would increase his cancer from being around the GMO corn or wheat or whatever it is that you guys grow around there and cancer from boredom.

Au contraire, I know exactly how it works. 

You go to Manhattan, KS and you get teh cancer.

It's pretty simple.
