They do have some world class tailgating in Knoxville, and they fill the **** out of that big-ass stadium. They do lack a mascot which will inevitably kill someone in a pre-game ritual.

Lol I do have to agree, there’s nothing special about a marching band entrance. But I’m sure if I was a Tennessee fan I’d think different.

They only take honor students in the Tennessee band.
I do love a good Sousa march, but all I could think about watching that video was "TAAAYYYAYYYY IN THE WINNNNN!"
A few days! When did that get extended?

Please research adjusting to the altitude, especially if you plan on hiking. Had a buddy once come out from Maryland and didn’t think about the effects that the altitude would have on him, so made the mistake of hitting the trails hard the first day. Big mistake on my part.

Running through the T is good. I also liked it when UT band played opposing team fight song. Folks in Knoxville were good to us. Two buddies and I do the same thing. 41 stadiums. Great experiences. You will have fun in CO.
Howard’s Rock is great. Loudest stadium I’ve ever been in.

Try to sneak into the student section and get down low for the running of the Buffalo while the students go crazy. Wear something CU related. Or maybe Tenn stuff would be good. Might get free drink from people thanking you all for taking Coach cliche off our hands.

Stay at one one the many hotels/motels/airbnbs within EZ walking/Uber distance from the stadium. Chautauqua (within actual walking distance of Folsom Field) will satisfy all of your local hiking needs, from mild gramma walks, up to to boulder scrambling to the point of the third Flatiron where you can't get any higher without technical climbing equipment.

As for the game, just get in there with the cheapest ticket and move about the stadium anywhere at will. West side is the most fun because Balch Fieldhouse sells beer. During Ralphie's Run, make your way down to the aisle in front of the first row in the northwest corner, where the run ends and they cage the animal. You will like it.
It’s a Friday night, nationally televised game in which CU has a decent chance of being 3-0 going into. Probably won’t be able to just move about the stadium at will.

Seating might be difficult, but if you keep moving you can go anywhere in Folsom. I like the visitors (west) side because the front row is literally 11 yards from inbounds, and if you wanted you could slap the helmets of the players on the visiting team's bench by barely reaching (but do not even think of doing that). I guess my point is that Folsom is a pretty great and intimate college football stadium.
Try to keep your "T"enis envy to a minimum.

The buffalo’s name is Ralphie V, a female, and is introduced by Eric Cartman cuz we have Uber cool alums in Trey and Matt.
The Dark Horse is pretty iconic Boulder bar and Pearl Street is cool.
East side, second deck. Magic.

Oh yeah, The tradition of UT is just great. Everyone steals Home Depot uniforms to wear at games, houses all over the state are painted with orange T's all over them thus upping the value, and a hillbilly song talking about doing your sister is celebrated. It's Nebraska on steroids. The sleeping fat dog mascot is priceless too.
And they still did better than us
Coupled with presumably heavy drinking. Could be an ass kicker.

I'm assuming this trip is taking place sometime in September?? If able, you should also try to catch a game at Coors Field. That place is pretty sick, especially late afternoon.

Was going to say that too but I wasn’t sure of the date. But if they keep winning, tickets won’t be readily available in September, that’s how colorado fans work.
You guys are killing me. You don’t even have to leave this site to confirm the date of the UCLA game.

And yes, the Rockies are home against the Nationals that Saturday.
