Wake might be one to think of as time approaches because it will be an easy trip. Ga Tech on a Thursday might be tough to make and BC on a Friday is not happening.

Any IPTAY members on-line that went to the last @FSU game? How many priority points did it take to get tix thru IPTAY?
That's the one I want to go to!
(But I am not going to be buying tix thru stub hub, etc.)

Bummed about next year's schedule

Only new stadium for me will be Jordan-Hare. No marquee home games except a down USC team. Also planning trips to BC, and at least one home game but can't decide. Live in NYC area so it's hard to get down as much as I'd like
Could just be feeling spoiled since I made it to 8 games this year

Auburn is best for me, because it's only a 4 hour drive

It's a shorter trip there than Clemson from N. Alabama, so I'm going with a friend who is a big Auburn fan. We have made each of the Clemson/Auburn games in the past decade.

We will run a story on the road trips later, but Boston is a great road trip if you're looking for more than the game. It is truly one of my favorite ACC trips because of the history, scenery and food.

For those that have not seen the city and surrounds--BC is a great trip.
You could catch a Red Sox game while in the city. Lots to see and do.

Too late in the year for a sox game unless they make it to post season. Still a good trip though.

Best trip overall? BC. I love going up there. It's like a different world. I'm a big history buff which helps but there is plenty to do in "Bahston". But don't expect much of a gameday experience. Can only tailgate like 3(?) hours before game and 1 or 2(?) after the game. Very few BC fans tailgate and very few really even care.
Best gameday experience? FSU. I've always had a good time in Tallahassee. It helps that I have family that are FSU fans and hook us up with an awesome tailgate and hotties in cowboy boots.
Worst trip? The trip I'm definitely skipping is Auburn. I don't care to ever go back to that place again. Went in 2010 and honestly, it was one of the worst gameday experiences I've ever had. Beer bottles being thrown at us pretty much the entire walk back to the truck after the game, AND WE LOST. Can't imagine how it'll be when we will there this coming season.
Wildcards:
GT is okay. Tailgating is pretty mediocre. Try to address your parking pretrip. Decent atmosphere and the nerds are fairly good about getting along as far as I've seen. But I hate playing in Atlanta, it's been a thorn in our side for awhile. Plus a Thursday night game in ATL? I'll pass that one.
Wake Forest is pretty laid back. Nice parking lots with plenty of tailgating room. Pretty nice stadium as well. Depending on the season, they care a little more than BC fans do but don't expect a sellout or much noise from those in the Black & Gold. If I have the opportunity, I'll make the WF trip. Not a bad drive and worth the trip.
