I would think Pride Field would be your best bet, lots of families, kids throwing football--things like that. It's right across from the Payne Center.

I agree. My crew is old and our kids are grown, but I always see a lot of kids throwing footballs and running all over campus on game days.

Woo Hoo!! Bought my tickets from SMU today!!

I'm all for meeting at a local bar, but does anybody wanna actually tailgate? I gotta drive in from Columbus, GA, probably early Saturday, but I'm all for meeting up and cooking and drinking.

Whatever. Look forward to partying in Misisispsisisispppiiiiii.

Now I gotta get a hotel room. Woo Hoo!!

Section Q is the larger red filled section. Section P is the one with about 5 rows of red in it. Thats the two sections that are available to SMU fans. I'm with RGV and crew on row 3 of section P.

I like Souther Miss' stadium design. 36,000 but looks much more expansive with the 2nd deck

Looks similar to Aggie with our end zone seats. I do like the design.

I think we're around the 5 or 10 yard line, and the front row is much closer to the sideline than aggie land. Beat USM!

I wish I could go. I feel a mint julip (sp?) might be the pregame drink of the century!

Gotcha Alex. Looks like the first couple of rows in P and the rest in next section over. I don't think we'll have more than 50-100 there.

Sounds like a lot of you will be sitting in P.

Most of the visitor tickets in Section P are in rows 2 and 3. So mrydel, the issue is elementary, to wit: 2P or not 2p, that is the question.

There will be an area on the northwest side of the campus that is set up with inflatable jumps and other kids activities. Its located in a big field just off of west 4th street.

The End Zone is a great sports bar to go to before and after the game. Its right be the 4th street bridge that passes over HWY 49. Nice view of the stadium and tailgating from there. Great food, lots of pool tables, fooseball, tv's, etc. Its more of an older, true sports pub instead of the big commercialized sports bar (Buffalo Wild Wings).

Mugshots is another great option. Within a mile of the stadium with tons of big screen tv's, huge bar, games, and banquet room if you guys wanted to meet and greet with a big group. They have the absolute best hamburger in the south not to mention the fries. I recommend the Macdonald burger or the Pato but you can't go wrong with any of them. Located just on north 40th avenue.

Old Athens Grill is located on the frontage road of Hwy 49 right across from Roberts Stadium. Nice easy walk to the stadium after you eat. Great greek food, hummus, gyros (let me suggest the pepperjack gyro), and some of the cheapest drink and draft specials in the hub city, and also a nice large deck in back complete with hd tv and umbrellas for the nice weather expected Saturday.
