Getting to the Game
| The Basics
|
Orange Fans Only
On Saturdays this fall, the place to get your football fix is Boone Pickens Stadium where the Cowboys will take on non-conference foes like Houston and Troy, as well as Big 12 rivals such as Texas A&M, Baylor, Iowa State, and Oklahoma.
But Saturday isn't just about football. It's a celebration of Cowboy sports and Orange Pride. Boone Pickens Stadium, with the Wild West Zone now open to fans, represents the beginning of a new era for OSU athletics.
Gameday
Cowboy football isn't just a game. It's an event. This season the football experience has spilled out onto the concourse. Join other cowboy fans in the Hall of Fame Block Party on the north side of the stadium for carnival concessions, Nike tent, inflatable games, and GoVision. John Holcomb and Dave Hunziker will broadcast the Cowboy pre-game show live across from the US Cellular Autograph Tent. In addition, the south side of Boone Pickens Stadium will feature a tent city full of vendors offering “made in Oklahoma” merchandise.
The Western-themed Express Personnel Club Level at Boone Pickens Stadium offers a pre-game buffet (click here for this week's menu options), wider seats with increased leg room and cupholders, and a climate-controlled indoor lounge with flat-screen TVs. The Club Level is home to some of our most dedicated supporters of OSU Athletics and is a tremendous way to enjoy Cowboy Football in an upscale atmosphere. For more information, including a private tour or seat availability, please contact Matt Grantham via email at mgrantham@osugiving.com or by phone at 405-744-5938 or 877-OSU-ATHL between 8am and 5pm (CST) Monday through Friday.
The Walk
Two hours and fifteen minutes before game time, the Cowboys will emerge from the Atherton Hotel and make the walk down Hester Street to Boone Pickens Stadium. They'll be led by Coach Gundy and the OSU Marching Band. This is your first chance of the day to help fire up the team. Consider it reporting for duty.
POSSE Parking
POSSE parking lots will open 6hours prior to evening games and 4 hours prior to morning or early afternoon games.
There will be no access to Knoblock Street between Hall of Fame Avenue & McElroy Street on game days.
There will be NO grilling, cooking or charcoaling allowed in or on top of the Silver Star parking garage due to fire and safety regulations, please plan accordingly.
General Parking
Cowboy fans can now PARK FREE IN DOWNTOWN STILLWATER and enjoy gameday shopping and dining before catching a courtesy shuttle to Boone Pickens Stadium. to download a map of available free parking lot locations downtown. Shuttle service begins 3 hours prior to kickoff and continues throughout post-game, with pick-up/drop-off approx. every 15 minutes.
Traffic Flow
I-35 Northbound traffic please consider taking OK-33 east to 177 north into Stillwater. This will greatly alleviate some traffic issues in Stillwater.
Street Closing:
Midway through the 2008 season, 6th Street will be reduced to only two lanes of traffic at the intersection of Monroe due to traffic light upgrades. This will slow eastbound and westbound traffic tremendously, please plan alternate routes. During that time Monroe will be closed to thru traffic between University Street and 6th Street.
How Orange Are You?
Cowboy athletes feed off the noise and emotion OSU fans provide - that's why it's called "home field advantage." The Cowboys need your support as they knock off the league's perennial powers and make a run at a bowl game.
Arrive early. Wear orange. Make some noise.
