Tech vs CO already getting attention

Just got 2 in section 104. They just released single seats today and I would rather not enter the GTAA lottery.
 
Boulder doesn’t appear to be all that big. It looks like the equivalent of trying to get a hotel room in Athens on a game weekend. The few hotels actually in Boulder are kinda pricey. Denver is 45 minutes or so away which furthers the Athens comparison.
I got a room for Friday night in Boulder when they announced the date. I'm debating on whether to stay there Saturday and Sunday too or move downtown. We're planning to go to a Rockies game or 2 later in the weekend.

I would move downtown for sure. There's more to check out there and it would be a PITA to drive back and forth.

For those looking for rooms, I got a room in broomfield and the price was reasonable. It's not too far (15 minutes) so the Uber shouldn't be too bad. There's also good dispersed camping in the mountains if you're cheap (outside of game day, that's what I'll do)
 
We’re making this a week’s vacation. I’ve got an air-bnb carriage house booked in Bolder for the weekend, then “glamping” at a camp resort near Rocky Mountain NP for a few nights, then moving down to Colorado Springs and staying next to the Garden of the Gods. We end the trip back in Denver with reservations at Casa Bonita and a Rockies game!

Game. Stupid order platform kept telling me I couldn't have the seats I picked because after my two, there would only be one seat left in the row. Then, as I was looking for two others, someone grabbed the two I had picked. I'm in 119 about halfway up. Good seats I think. Oh, and no service fee so bite me, ticketmaster.
Did you buy from Colorado?
 
We will also be visiting Casita Bonita. Probably Saturday lunch.
Curious to hear how it is now that the South Park guys have invested in it. We went a few years ago (pre-Covid), and the food was sub-Taco Bell and the whole place was pretty threadbare. I’m glad we went for the LOLs, but it wasn’t a great experience.

Road game tix, including Colorado, go on sale from GTAA at 10a on Monday. Tix will be allocated by A-T points as per usual.

Week 1 – vs. Georgia Tech

For the second season in a row, the Buffs have a very challenging season opener in prime time at Folsom Field. Georgia Tech was one of the ascending teams in college football last season with Brent Key at the helm, and Haynes King will be back under center as the starting quarterback.

The Yellow Jackets love to run the football, which makes them an interesting matchup against a Colorado team that struggled to stop the run at times over the lat few seasons. With so many transfers coming in for the Buffs in the front seven once again, Georgia Tech's physicality and continuity helps it pull out a tight victory to open the year.

Pick: Georgia Tech 27, Colorado 24 (0-1)
 
I'll be there with a buddy of mine- Flying in on Thursday, game on Friday, going to Eldorado Canyon State Park on Saturday, and then back to the A on Sunday.
 
Just got off the phone with CO ticket office. I bought my tix from them back in May. Dude was calling to make sure I got my tix ok and anything else he could do for me. Appreciated the call - told him I was all set. 5 min later, I get an email from the guy - confirming our convo and for me to reach out if anything else.

That's customer service - very professional. Its really not that hard if you make up your mind that's how you want to run your shop.
 
Secured my hat for the Colorado game. Even though it's not official Tech merchandise, it proclaims undefeated and is still of the era. Hoping to see lots of 1990 gear for the game. Would be funny if my wife joined for the game and wore her Mizzou stuff (that's where she went).

Not sure most bandwagon Buffs fans will even know about 1990.

That’s pretty awesome. You should also make a shirt that says “Colorado: Home of the 5th Down”
