re: Attn Aggie fans: Any advice for first visit to College Station?

I appreciate all the info.
Decided to knock out most of my work for Thursday today and will attempt to talk my way out of actually having to go in so I can leave here early and make to College Station much earlier than I had anticipated so I can have more time to check out everything. The Bonfire Memorial & Bush Library are 2 things I'm definitely going to try to make it to if I have enough time to on Friday. If not, I'll be planning another visit to the area soon enough and actually make it to a game next time around.

Btw, need to go book a room for the Thurs night before Isaac hits and cuts out our power over here. Any suggestions? I'm guessing somewhere close to the campus/Northgate area probably since it sounds like I'll be this are most of the time anyway.
