Glad to see others are travelling as well! Flying into KC thursday, hoping to get to Chiefs Broncos and Sporting Kc on Friday.
11am start is tough, anyone else making the day of game trip from Kansas City?
It is, but 11am Central time.I thought it was 11:11 am.
What gives?
Sounds good to me although Harpo's website says they don't open until 11am on Saturdays. Maybe they open earlier on game days? I think we may want to find another spot that we know opens at least by 9am. BTW, I'll have a full size rental car that seats 5, and I have an A Lot parking pass. A Lot is adjacent to the stadium on the visitors' side. So, depending on how far those free parking garages are from the field, I'm happy to give up to 4 people a ride to the stadium after our "tailgate", wherever it is.
Great information! Thanks! So, you're sure the establishments above will be open prior to the game, say 9am? I'll also call to confirm. What about parking nearby any of the ones you listed? Heildelberg sounds great, especially if they serve both breakfast and beverages by 9am. Not sure if the other places will have both at that hour, though.A Lot! Fancy. I've been going to Mizzou games for more than 30 years and I've never parked in A Lot.
You won't have a problem getting a beverage downtown before the game, say starting around 7 a.m. Heidelberg will definitely have a breakfast buffet where booze will be available; others that I'm sure will be open: Harpo's, Fieldhouse/Willie's (two bars under one roof), Shiloh, Bengals. If you want to plan something in advance, I'd suggest Googling till you find one you like, then calling for details.
For those of you who want to have fun downtown instead of tailgating, there is a shuttle from the bars to the stadium. Parking in municipal decks is free; shuttle is $1.50. Times will be updated mid-week.

Glad to see so many of you are making your way to Missouri. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

BTW, forking over the mucho dineros for the A Lot pass was mostly a function of needing a quick getaway after the game. I have a 5:30 flight from STL back to DFW.
BTW, Jumbo you seem like a really decent guy so feel free to come by my very humble tailgate, with or without fellow Mizzou fans.
Layover in Atlanta airport before flight to St. Louis. Varsity for lunch, classic Atlanta burger joint. Not the same ambiance as the original, but it's good.

I've invited all BYers to swing by my very humble tailgate in A Lot anytime after 9am. A Lot is adjacent the stadium on the NW (visitors') side. I'm on a business trip so the "tailgate" will consist of a Styrofoam cooler full of beer and/or soda in the trunk of my rental car. I'm happy to stock that with whatever beverage anyone wants, and you can pay me back at the tailgate. I will post back here later tomorrow once I know what make/model and color my rental car is so you'll know how to find me. Shouldn't be hard though, as A Lot is relatively small. PM me and we can also swap mobile phone #s, too, which will help you find where I'm parked.Was there any consensus on a tailgate or pre/post bar options for the game Saturday. We are driving up from KC around 6 AM (hoping to get there by 8:00 am) and staying at an AirBNB about a mile from the stadium. We are good to walk some drinks over to a tailgate if needed. Being as this is my first UConn Football game in 10 years I would like to enjoy it with other fellow Huskies. We should probably turn A lot into spring weekend X Lot for the pre-game.
