BC fans are a unique bunch....

They don't really tailgate (certainly not like we do it at Clemson), they tend to file into the stadium randomly throughout much of the first quarter, and when the game ends, there is no hanging -around and tailgating; they all get in their cars and leave. Maybe they're all just trying to beat the rush to Saturday mass. Whatever the case, within an hour after the game, the place is virtually empty.

They don't have much space nearby to tailgate! Lots of people park at industrial parking lots and are bussed to the stadium.
Tailgated right next to the stadium with some big time contributors and they put on a pretty good spread.

The people are very welcoming and nice as well. My nephew just moved there so I may go visit this year for the game.

Hit the black rose until 1 hour before the game then jump on the subway

I do know the very affluent Chestnut Hill locals....

frown on the tailgating and traffic and the local municipality fully supports their disdain or contempt.

Pre-game (and post-game really) in the Cleveland Circle area. Everyone walks from there before and to there after the game(s). It's right on the corner of Chestnut Hill Ave & Beacon Street.

Right there are both Roggie's & Cityside. And make sure, for those of you that have never been to Alumni Stadium... They close the gates at kickoff so make sure to give yourself enough time (at least 20-25min) to walk over to the gate from the bars.

When I was stationed in Boston back in the 80's, I seem to recall most of the high school football games are played on Saturdays. Could explain the Friday night BC game?

Whatever choice(s) you make makes you. Choose wisely.


It would appear that neither team showed up as well.
