cgeldmacher Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 I am going with a crew of 8. We have myself and four others heading up from St. Louis, one from Chicago, and two from Cincinnati. It's a mini reunion of guys from my day. I have been told by the folks at SLU that there will be between 300 to 350 Billiken fans at the game. This includes 50+ students. Anyone staying and tearing it up on Saturday night? We're all staying at the Sheraton downtown. Got reservations at St. Elmo's on Saturday, then hitting the downtown bars.

My group of 8 has 4 from STL, 2 from Chicago, and 2 from Cincy. We're staying Friday and Saturday night, too. Different downtown hotel. And no St. Elmo's.

Pistol Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 That's funny. We should have worked out some sort of carpool arrangement. What years was your crew at SLU? 2001-2005. To put it in basketball terms: Romar's final season and Soderberg's first three. Our senior year was that 9-21 campaign. 4 couples; 6 of 8 of us went to SLU, the other two to Mizzou.

slu06 Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 Just to give the people who are driving a heads up, the parking situation there is a pretty big disaster so I would advise you to get there early Thanks for the heads up. Do you have any suggestions for parking? We're staying at the Hilton Garden Inn, which according to Google, is about 6 miles south of the stadium. Also, is SLU hosting a formal pre-game meet up, or is everyone just heading to Average Joe's? Also also, is it fair to presume they don't sell $2 pre-game beers?

There's a SLU reception that was part of both the ticket-only package and the ticket-and-bus package, but both of those are currently closed for sales.

I believe it's $15 for the pregame if you aren't signed up through the alumni association already Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, some people charge a small fee to park in their front lawn(not even joking). It might be a bit of a longer walk but it will be much easier getting in and out of Hinkle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
