For those who are going to VA, what is everyone's itinerary? Fly, fan bus?, car.... What are the best deals jacks fans are seeing out there on the World Wide Web for travel? Are fans staying in Harrisonburg or elsewhere?

Re: Harrisonburg, VA Travel Plans
Fly into Richmond VA. A much easier airport to fly into than DC even though the drive is a bit further to JMU.Comment

Re: Harrisonburg, VA Travel Plans
My wife and I booked our tickets tonight. Is there going to be a Jacks tailgating spot at the stadium? Sorry if this was asked already.Comment

Re: Harrisonburg, VA Travel Plans
I don't believe anything is formally planned at the Stadium. O'Neill's grill is very close to the stadium as I understand it. I know some of our fans have reached out to JMU fans about joining them for the tailgate.Originally posted by 98Jackfarmer View PostWe are here to add what we can to life, not get what we can from life. -Sir William Osler

Re: Harrisonburg, VA Travel Plans
By the book DC is about 10-15 minutes closer but depending on traffic Richmond is usually quicker - so I agree. Richmond much easier to get in and out of as well.Originally posted by Hareofthedog View PostComment

Re: Harrisonburg, VA Travel Plans
Oh man I managed a building in Sioux City and would fly in and out of Sioux Falls. I've had too many beers to remember at that little bar/restaurant there. Great local stuff.Originally posted by BTownJack View Post
Safe travels to anyone coming - if you want a younger/boozier tailgate to stop by DM me - we are happy to share the liquor and beer we have. We usually are lighter on food and take advantage of our very generous neighbors. Besides you gotta focus on the goal at hand.Comment

Re: Harrisonburg, VA Travel Plans
I find Reagan National generally pretty easy to get in and out of. Guess we will find out how it is on a Friday at 3 pm........We are here to add what we can to life, not get what we can from life. -Sir William Osler

Re: Harrisonburg, VA Travel Plans
You'll be okay, JackMD. Nowadays, Congress leaves on Thursday and doesn't return until Tuesday. In the old days, Friday afternoons could be a madhouse out of National.Comment

Re: Harrisonburg, VA Travel Plans
Trying to head west on 66 at that time will be a parking lot, though. Are you able to audible to Dulles or even Richmond?Originally posted by jackmd View PostComment
