    Re: Suggestions For those coming to BYU game

    I'll warn you now -- there are zero good bars in Midvale. The state liquor store in the old downtown closes by 7pm, as well. Your best, closest bet would be to go to the Cotton Bottom Inn in Cottonwood Heights. Good biker bar.

      Watch out for those biker bars:

      The Lord reigns, let the earth be glad; let the distant shores rejoice, clouds and thick darkness surround Him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne. Fire goes before Him, and consumes his foes on every side; His lightning lights up the world; the earth sees and trembles; the mountains melt like wax before the Lord of all the earth. The heavens proclaim His righteousness and all peoples will see His glory.

        I'll be ok without drinking. The trip out will cost enough. I'll hold off on drinking for a weekend.

          Most important suggestion:

          Stay in Park City.

          You will not like staying in Provo-Orem. Park City is beautiful. It has world-class food (but also great working-class food too! -- full range of excellent options). Lots of good bars on Main Street. Lots of hotels that have good summer rates. About 35-45 minutes from the game. Also, after the game, there will be lots of traffic in Provo and between Provo and SLC, but not between Provo and Park City.

          If there are a group of you, I recommend just chartering a bus to take you to and from Park City before/after the game.

          Park City also has lots of fun activities, hiking, good golf courses, etc. if you are around on Sunday morning or Friday afternoon.

          Other suggestions:
          1. Ignore the bozos. Like any school, BYU has a small minority of obnoxious fans. But most will be (all too) happy to talk with you. They might not know much about FCS (or even football generally), but they'll be friendly and excited that you came to LES.
          2. Do not dis-assemble LES with your pocket screwdriver. It will be tempting. But we need the stadium for the rest of the season.
          3. If you have time: float down the Provo River in an inner tube. (you can ever do this the morning of the game!) Spectacular view of the mountains/canyon. Bring your own beer.
          Amen and amen. I endorse everything bruincoug said. Great suggestions for those coming up to the game.

          Also, I'll be tailgating at the game and I'll be west of the stadium. If you see a tailgate group running a satellite dish and watching the utah Michigan game, drop by and say hi.
