Maybe the first time I have heard BC’s Band being solid. Especially from a large State school with a much bigger band. Thank you!

They have a great Fight Song, but their band is very small. There is a large grass field next to the stadium that you can rent a tent on. That’s what our alumni association should do.
I’m surprised that we have BC parents and BC employees on here as fans. You must be fans of both schools.

My other school we had a former BC cop. Yeah she wasn't a fan of them

You've never seen rented tents sponsored by the alumni association on the grass next to The Rent? Have you ever been there?
They have parking lots. I would expect that they wouldn't all be "no tailgating".
The main campus is only 175 acres with limited open air parking. There are two large parking garages that provide the majority of the on campus parking. There’s additional parking about two miles away at the Newton campus.

When UConn played at BC in 2016, I believe there was a boneyard member that set up a "tailgate" in the middle of campus under a big tent. My wife and I went. It was the best part of that game since UConn lost like 30-0. I don't remember all the details, but I believe this guy also set up a fan bus. My wife and I stayed in Boston for the night so we didn't take the bus and just bought a ticket for the tailgate portion. It was really nice and had food and alcohol from what I remember. Maybe something like that will be done this year.

…and the only time. Because they’re not solid at all.

Went to a UConn-Boston Alumni event last month. They mentioned they would put something together for this game. I will post here when I hear more.

UConn Football vs. Boston College Husky Hangout
Join UConn Nation for a pre-game reception on campus at Boston College's Lyons Hall Dining Room before catching the UConn Football - Boston College game at Alumni Stadium.
Hope you have great weather. It is a beautiful spot on a sunny October day. Need to hit Treehouse on the way up

I went to the game there in 2016, and the tailgate scene is without question dismal, unless partying in a 6 floor parking garage is your idea of cool. There just doesn't to be much outdoor space for it, unless there was some secret handshake season ticket holder lot I didn't know about. We ate cold food (no grilling allowed) and I ended up pissing between cars until the game started. If I were you, I would find a nearby bar & grill and tailgate there and then Uber to the Stadium.
