Usually very reasonably, and often free

Of course we all know this. Canopies, chairs, tables and dishes are available for use from local governments

It really looked like pro football

Weather bug was the only weather forecaster who got this one correct. Started off sunny, then it got slightly cloudy. A slight breeze and very pleasurable temperature. 
 

The game was fantastic. From the first kick you could tell both teams "meant business." It really looked like pro football.

For me the 'icing on the cake,' when I arrived I was given a jersey allowing me access onto the field as photographer.

Bring raincoat just in case

Hoping the Weather Bug prediction is the right one "cloudy"

 Indications are that rain will come through the area before game time.

Travel Plans late November

Stopped posting daily rates as they seem minimal.  
The information is available on    a number of local websites.

I have survived without infection and will finally receive my first Pfizer dose Thursday. Expect a second dose mid November and am considering travel plans shortly thereafter
