Bus Trip to Vermillion

[bobsboy84]

Since the PSC and/or Panthernation are not sponsoring a bus trip to Vermillion, I have put together a Coach Bus Trip for UNI Panther Football vs USD on Saturday, October 16. Details:
Depart Cedar Valley @ 8am
Pick up and depart Mason City/Clear Lake @ 9:30am
Lunch Stop for one (1) hour in Sanborn, IA @ Noon
Depart Sanborn @ 1:00pm
Arrive Vermillion @ 3:00pm
Kick off @ 4:00pm
Depart Vermillion @ ~8:00pm
Arrive Mason City/Clear Lake @ ~12:30am
Arrive Cedar Valley @ ~2:00am
The cost is $75/person which includes; Cavalier Coach transportation, lunch, and game ticket. If you have several in your group, or, children; we could discuss a discounted cost, however, I did not include much margin at $75. PM me, or, respond to this Thread for more details. I will update as I get response.
I have a nice arrangement with the bus company, so, we don't need to confirm until October 01 and USD ticket office indicated that I could still purchase a group of tickets at that late date. Of course, the earlier I can get RSVP's, the better.
Go Panthers, baby!!!!

That's not something you hear very often.

We should not be playing a game at SD, IMO.

would you rather have us buying a D2 game at home?
and without the return game, we probably wouldn't have been able to get USD in the dome in '08 or '09.

Yep...and with what money are we going to buy USD out of their game and then pay for another USD/St. Francis/D2 school to come in?

I also, even with the expanded playoff field, don't think we can play anymore D2's. They don't count.

Re: Bus Trip to Vermillion

Did not mean to start a debate about the merits of the game.

I'm just looking for a fun trip with a group of supportive Panther fans. Have had some inquires, but, no confirms yet.

Looking forward to the need for a second bus, once we start 3-0 and rate top 5 in nation.

Vermillion is worse than brookings. wait, maybe they are the same. embarassing that both of those towns are D1 along with Grand Forks, downright embarassing.

I figured $10 per ticket, so, you can take that off the $75. I will PM you some more info. USD ticket office says the group rate is $9.00. I increased to $10 to cover mail or other associated cost.

What would the cost be if you have tickets but want to ride the bus?

Re: Bus Trip to Vermillion

Will try to bring this up each week. ~16 firm commits at this point. Thinking that after 3-0 start and Top #5 ranking, we will need two (2) busses.
