jersey guy here, so here is my suggestions and information
from DFW look into

http://www.supershuttle.com/Locations/D ... allas.aspx

the dart does not call the DFW airport.

The dart train to the game is safe. much safer that a NY subway to Yankee Stadium

walk a 1/2 mile or take a free shuttle bus from Mockingbird Station to SMU campus.
you'll see people in football game shirts and such. just follow them.

once on campus go to tent number 4 on this map for beer and food

SMU fans are very nice. you won't find any [deleted] while you where your Rutgers shirts.

very close to campus is a Mexican restaurant another poster mentioned called Banditos

Dallas downtown at night rolls up the sidewalks. you will be amazed how little action there is. so be prepared.

for my ponyfans brother/sisters, FYI Rutgers invented college football playing Princeton for the first ever game in 1869

Yeah! I remember that game just like it was yesterday

Just ask mrydel, he may have played in that game before coming to SMU.

Shameless plug. I have a bar downtown not too far from the Omni (15 minute walk) at 1608 Elm (maybe 6 blocks from Dealey Plaza). It is sports friendly and a block east from the Akard DART station. Tourists welcome.

Downtown Dallas is typical of most midwestern downtowns these days. It's an area undergoing a big transformation from the 70's/80's days of suburban commuters back to an actual urban core neighborhood. Don't expect Manhattan, but you should find a diverse and fun mix of folks wandering through the maze of skyscrapers.

Also, all of the above recs are spot on.

I have done the DART to DFW. It's not hard, but allow at least one to one and a half hours of transit. The flat cab rate to downtown is $55 I believe, and will take about 25 minutes. DART will cost you $2.50 each way for the bus/train.

No, I was too old. But the senior citizens tickets were just 10 cents.

Jersey07080 I hope you have a safe trip down.

His eligiblity ran out before that season.

Just to make the image clear, no member of the male sex, should pass up a trip to the Boulevard before the game. However, when you bring your wife, try not to make your head move too much when you see the "scenery".

Wraparound shades are key.

same thread Aggy/Bama version-pretty funny-they know College Station sucks. Best suggestion-arrive shortly before gametime-nothing to do here

Damn.

What a bunch of insecure jackasses.

Funny, considering they'll expect to (and probably will) kill us, I expect if posted the same thing on their board as an SMU fan, they'd probably be alot more polite.

So...

Northgate?

The Corp Museum and Gun Collection

Panchos. The soapapillas are freaking epic.

Wings N More for grubbing

Tour the beautiful A&M campus and see architecture inspired by some of Germany and Siberia's most historic prisons.

With helpful 6:00 p.m Kickoff I believe I can keep my elapsed time in College Station to under 5 hours
