Things to avoid on football gameday

Bookstore: Like sporting the latest The Shirt on football weekends? Of course! Like it enough to be touched anonymously by hundreds of other noisy fans in the mile-long cashier lines? Didn't think so.

 

Grape Road: The main thoroughfare of downtown Mishawaka is bad enough during rush hour. Toss in a hundred thousand extra drivers searching for a place to celebrate the victory over Purdue, and it's a recipe for auto disaster.

 

Stadium Bathrooms during halftime: See Bookstore, but with toilets.

 

Indiana Toll Road: Looking to travel out of town after the game this weekend? Take a bike. It will be quicker. Seriously.

 

Library or any study hall: You kidding me!? New coach, new quarterback, new season? Forget about it!
