Looking for gameday advice.
Will we be able to park anywhere near the Arena, or is there a standard non season ticket holder parking area to be aware of?
What do you recommend for getting bite to eat before the game. Needs to be a place minors can get into, if they have a terrific beer selection all the better. If there's Illinois memorabilia and nostalgia all over that would be ideal.
Lastly we would love access to lower level tix if you happen to know a pal willing to part with them since the Illini haven't given locals much to hoot and holler about lately. I'd need at least 3 for my father-in-law (U of I lifer), my 8 y.o. son and me.
Of course I can see what out there on stubhub but it'd be nice o avoid the fees if possible.
