Frisco/DFW Questions and Info

[HookedonGriz]

Every game I’ve been to has the visitors sitting on the west side.

Thx. I bought mine in the end zone close to my buddy Hooked.

Question: I booked the Embassy Suites at the convention center. Seemed like an easy Uber ride. Is it? Or should I cancel and book something closer?

Let’s goooooo!

Is Frisco a cookie-cutter community? i.e. lots of national chains that all look alike and not much personality? Or are there fun/unique places to visit that you can't see/go to anywhere else? Restaurants, distilleries, odd little haunts we can't miss out on?

Frisco is mostly cookie cutter. But the surrounding area is great. Frisco Plano McKinney Addison all have really great restaurants. I live in the area. If you want any suggestions or questions DM me. Someone mentioned Hutchins BBQ. I personally think it’s the best in DFW. It’s always ranked top 5. It’s close to the stadium. Tons of activities for families or just the boys looking to party. Has everything anyone is looking for. Seriously hit me up with Questions.

Every food nationality you could want or ask for within 5 miles of the stadium. BBQ. Sushi TexMex. Authentic mex. Poke. Asian Ethiopian Indian.

Whatever you want. We got it in the area.

Also legacy food hall in Plano is a good place to spend a night. Tons of food and drinks and live music.

Another tip. Keep any eye on the weather forecast and don’t assume it will be 60. I wore a hoodie and shorts and froze my ass off on a cold and humid day.

Looks like the charters have people staying at the Dallas Addison Marriott. I got into the Marriott Residence Inn just across the courtyard for $121 instead of $327!

Headed there with three friends! Got standing tickets… I figured I’d be standing the whole time anyways… lol

:lol: My brother, sis inlaw, and I are doing the same.
Rest of our crew is trying to decide on seating options.
Seating is about 2x's as much.

SRO ticket prices went up to $300 with fees today. Managed to get mine before the price hike. I saw 1 at midfield selling for $51k!! lol, who would pay THAT??

What about Hyatt Regency Frisco?

 

[EverettGriz]

There will be quite a few Griz fans staying at the Hilton Dallas Lincoln Center.

Which is now sold out.

My wife said the cost was $1500. Hope that isn't accurate.

If that includes flight, game ticket and hotel room that’s a steal. I paid $1000+/ticket for JUST tickets.

Thanks!

They have big screens in the corners of the stadium. Not as big as WaGriz but similar to the Fargo Dome if you’ve ever been there.

I personally think it is a great stadium to watch football in. There’s not a bad view in the house and the concourses are big and spacious with views of the field below.

What's the drink situation like in the stadium? Beer only? Cocktails? Vino?

How early can one set up a tailgate? When I was there, the bison had a bunch of tailgates already staged in the west parking lot. It looked like they had been there, sometime. That parking lot was basically all bison fans. They seemed to have the whole procedure dialed in, old hat for them.
