It's been 17 years since I've traveled down to The Shoe to see a game, but I've managed to get the opportunity to drive down from Ottawa, Canada to see the home opener.  I'm also down to visit my Canukbuck brick at the stadium ... LOL !!

I'm staying at a hotel which is about a mile walk to the stadium, on the Olentangy River Road, but am sure that the area around campus and Lane Ave. has changed during the past 17 years.

So, I'm appealing to my friends at Eleven Warriors, to offer up suggestions for dinner locations on Friday and Saturday nights, to let me know when the Skull session starts, to let me know if Eleven Warriors has anything happening at tailgate (and where might I find them) and any other helpful hints that would make my visit back to Columbus at great time.

Much appreciated .....
