Re: Blue Hens in Colorado
Folsom is a fantastic stadium. Terrific restaurants and bars over on Pearl St.
What an FBS baptism!

Re: Blue Hens in Colorado
Round trip from PHL to DEN, Thursday morning (8:30am) until Monday morning (7am departure), non-stop, only $273 via American Airlines.
Early risers can get a 6:45am Thursday departure from PHL (non-stop) and a 6:05am Monday departure, with one stop in Dallas) from Denver for only $188 via Frontier Airlines.
A couple extra days in the Boulder area is always a bonus.
So, $35 for the tailgate, $80 for the game ticket, $125 for the Friday night event, $660 for 2-nights at the hotel, $150 for an extra night (3 nights), and $260 for the game day bus transportation to and from the hotel and a special gift ($500 each for the extra guests...which would be $240 per person for the party gigs and $260 for the bus and gift...plus a free hotel stay for up to 3 extra people).
I think I did that breakdown correctly...although one would have to find other accommodations for the extra night's stay (R, F, St and Sunday). Maybe a yurt in the mountains.
Plus rental car or transportation from Denver to Boulder.
Not a bad price for what seems like a fun gig with other Blue Hens fans...with plenty of free time to do other things.
Wonder what the gift is?

Re: Blue Hens in Colorado
Might be a terrific stadium, but had a friend who attended a Nebraska/Colorado game a couple of years ago and said he will never go back! Said so many Nebraska fans were very badly treated by the fan base there. Of course it’s a rival game as both teams used to be in the same conference, but the mistreatment was awful! Doubt they will care much about Delaware but just wanted to pass along a previous experience in Boulder from a friend who is an Nebraska alum.Bluewyn Gold wrote: ↑Sat Jul 12, 2025 1:00 am Folsom is a fantastic stadium.

Re: Blue Hens in Colorado
Was in a middle school competition in Boulder in 1992. We stayed in the dorms and one day went to the field. Was open for anyone to play/toss footballs (different times). Distinctive black rise/hill behind the one end zone. Nice spot - small compared to other Power 4/5 stadiums. Ralphie VI will get everyone fired up before the game.
