Who is all planning on the making this game? As of right now, I am planning to be there.

Does anyone know anything about the stadium...is there a good halftime meeting spot??

Does anyone even WANT to meet up???

Does anyone even WANT to meet up??? I was on visitors side in 06 and didn't really go around to other side. I know there is a statue of Doak Walker by the visitor concession area. I believe the concourse goes all away around so either endzone area would be good.

I was looking at a picture. I had a hard time telling if there was a walkway around the top level.

It looks like the other endzone is just on a grassy hill.

If there is a walkway...maybe between Gates 4 and 5??

I am pretty sure there is. My kids went to the home side to get food. The area underneath is very large, plenty of room. The white ring between the upper and lower levels is where the concourse is located. You enter the gate into the concourse and then enter the seating area.

http://graphics.fansonly.com/schools/smu/graphics/ford-stadium-chart.gif I've been to a HS game at this stadium the best place would be between gate 1 and 8. Its open and I think its scoreboard side.

Royse City played Denison there last year in the first round of the playoffs, the crowd (Home/Visitor) is seperated once you are in the stadium from what I remember...

It might be different with it being a State Championship game, but you can't really get around once inside, they had it roped off...I would plan on meeting before the game at the south end of the stadium, or in front of the stadium.

Also, parking can be difficult, there is a parking garage very close to the stadium on SMU's campus that should be accessible, just took a while to get out after the game.

I will be at this game... I havent been able to go since the Breckenridge game. I dont think I will be able to get to the M&G. I am planning on getting there an hour and a half ealryI figure it may take me that long to walk to my seat.
