Anyone know of a bus going from Vegas to the game and back...
I saw some posts referencing it but no details. Any help would be appreciated.

Do you really want to sit on a bus for 10+ hours on game day? That's the only question you really need to ask yourself. I can't believe people are treating this whole Vegas thing as a plausible option. It's a 4.5 hour drive each way going 70mph with no traffic!

I could not afford to book in glendale

Or phx.
I literally save over $1200 so yeah I'm willing to sit on a bus.
I'd rather get on a private jet and take a limo to the game but for what I am willing to pay this is my only option. Either drive or ride a bus and the bus sounds better esp if it's full of tiger fans and they let me bring a cooler lol
Either way GO TIGERS!

Despite what this ####### decided to chime in with above...
I just checked. It's $712 to fly from Atlanta to Pheonix. Or it's $610 to fly from Greenville to Vegas.
So, like I said, if you're willing to drive to Atlanta and spend another $100, to me, it's worth it. Hotels in Glendale are $160-225 a night and are 15min from the stadium. Rent a car in Phoenix for $40/day and you're still saving money AND time!
If you'd rather spend 10 hours drinking out of a cooler on a bus, that's fine. But for $100 extra? I'm sorry but this isn't something worth arguing over. I was simply asking why. Not mocking you or trying to be insulting. People around here really need a hug

I suggest using Kayak instead of Orbitz first of all. These are all of the options 1/10-1/12:
http://www.kayak.com/hotels/GlendaleAZ-c20608/2016-01-10/2016-01-12
I booked a room at Arizona Grand Resort in Pheonix (4 stars, excellent reviews) for $175/night just two days ago and I just called them and they still have rooms available. You guys are so quick to bash someone for suggesting a different idea but have no frame of reference before doing so. Makes no sense.

I didn't mean you bud, I'm sorry. But these other two, geez. I wasn't coming in here bashing your idea at all, just questioning why. That's all. My bad if everyone perceives a question as hatred or mockery these days. My friend is doing the Vegas thing... He is paying $169 a night to stay at Mandalay Bay and driving to and from the game (9 hours total)... I'm like why???? Sure, he is saving $180 on the flight but to me, 10 hours of driving on a game day is absurd to save $100-200. If the finances are tight, trust me, I understand. But I just couldn't justify it after doing some research. That's all. These guys can do whatever they want but I'd rather you make an informed decision than just jump on board with whatever suggestion appears first. Seems like that's not cool around here though. Regardless man, I hope you're able to make the game! Go tigers

Did it ever cross your mind that some fans would happily make a bunch of new friends and enjoy that bus ride with a few frosty adult beverages and be in Glendale to cheer on our team and still have some money in their bank account at the end of it?
Oh, and spend a weekend in Vegas?
Oh, and be able to cash that wager I made at the Mirage last February when the odds of the Tigers winning it all were 25:1?
Maybe spend your time doing something besides taking a dump on fans doing anything they can to get to Glendale, sourpuss.

Why do people get so fn defensive?
So you fly into Vegas for $100 less than Pheonix and get a hotel room let's say at Mandalay Bay for $170/night. The bus is $60-80 round trip if you can find a charter. Takes 5 hours each way. How much did you save and what is your time worth? I just question why it's a plausible option. No need to come on with all the unchecked aggression. No one was insulting anyone or "dumping on fans" as you put it. I'd rather spend $80 more on a flight to pheonix and not sit on a bus for 10 hours. But do you pal

Do you care, click the thread, and post some stupid garbage about your preferences for transportation as if anyone could possibly give two flips?
If people want to pedal a freaking sowinn from Maine to Arizona to be there, good for them. Not my choice, but again, who could oossibly care?
