Plans for our first game at A&M

Hey Whisker,
Thanks the info was helpful!

I found a map that indicates fan field has parking that opens a 7:00 am. We are net setting up canopy with tables for a big event, so it will just be the two of us. I would still like to heat up the skillet.

Anybody know what fan field is like on game day? Are people cooking in that area or is it just a parking lot?

You’ll see people cooking everywhere. As far as I know propane is completely fine and expected

I’ve never heard of anyone mention anything called “fan field”.

I just googled fan field. It’s right by the Bush School on the “west” (south) side of campus. (I suggest y’all check out the Bush Library / Mueseum if y’all can fit it in your schedule)

It’s not really a field ... just a giant gravel parking lot.

You’ll be fine to do whatever you want there. I’ll try and take some pictures and post them here of send them to you so you have a better idea.

I think it opens at 7AM on game day ... not sure if you can park there the day before or not ... it’s usually completely empty unless it’s game day so I don’t see why not ...

It’s a decent location right next to Buses that can drop you off after a 2 minute ride at Reed Arena ... which is where a lot of the tailgating starts.

Thanks so much for the follow ups. I liked the idea of the parking lot opening early on game day. The other ones seem to open at 3:30.

I would like to make a full day of it when we come down.

We went down for the Aggie/LSU baseball game last year and froze our asses off. So we know what to expect from College Station.

Just hanging around campus on a game day Saturday works for me!
