If you are considering attending the SMU/NAVY game next Fall in Annapolis. Book your room pretty soon. The nice new Westin Hotel is already sold out that weekend. I tried to book a room at the new Westin online and called them and they said they were already SOLD OUT.
The Mustang Club is supposed to have a trip for this game, but I always go ahead and book a room for these type of special road trips just in case. You can always cancel a day or two before and not be charged.

Road trips should be alot more fun in coming years with June Jones in charge. Road trips are always fun, but the "beatings" always soured the trips home. I think June Jones is going to change that! Look forward to seeing you in Annapolis.
smupony94 Thats a pretty good airfare. I think we may wait on reserving the flights until we hear what the Mustang Club is going to do because the flights are not cancel for free like the hotel. Of course the Mustang Club Navy trip details probably won't be public until July or August.
I was going to do the same thing for Tulane, but can't find a date for the SMU/Tulane game? smupony94 do you know a date for SMU@Tulane?

"According to a close source, we are currently working with ESPN to be on National TV to open the 2008 football season with SMU on Thursday night. This would be very beneficial because it would allow us to have a game before playing Bama, $ and exposure from Tv, and most important a bye week later in the season..... If this change isn't made we will play 12 straight weeks again without a week off...... You heard it here first! "
There are rumors that the DC alumni chapter might get a bus/tailgate package together for the drive up to Annapolis. Might be easier to fly into DC and take the bus up there and take the bus back after the game ...Something to consider if you're having trouble finding a hotel in Annapolis...
PonyLove that particular hotel is expensive because of location. But I would think hotels in Annapolis are generally a bit more expensive. We really want to take in the Annapolis vibe and walk the streets/shops/pubs. But yes it will be nice if the Mustang Club comes up with a sweet deal including airfare/transportation/tours of the Academy.
I am going to stay in Northern VA with my son and take the 70 mile commute to the game. Need tto take my future Mustang granddaughters to their first game.
