keikla Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 There are a couple bars right by the DU campus (can't remember names), but your best bet for going out post-game is in the downtown/16th St mall area. It's a quick and easy lightrail ride from DU. For hotels, I strongly recommend either staying downtown or somewhere very close to a lightrail station. It's significantly more convenient (even if you aren't drinking) when you don't have to worry about driving everywhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hayduke Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Colorado is the microbrew capital of the U S of A. Best beer in America. Imbibe and enjoy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southpaw Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 I've always purchased my DU tickets on Stubhub.com. I like the seats on the glass and can usually get someone's season tickets for $40 each. Price tends to drop as the games get closer, obviously.

UNDColorado Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 Tour a brewery during the day if you get time. Here is a good place to start: http://www.denver.org/dining-nightlife/bars-clubs/denver-brewery-tours Not really a bad seat in Magnus. Last season my family sat in the season ticket section right behind Gwozs' family. They didn't like us too much. Or since the series in in January get up early and go skiing!

siouxfaninseattle Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 Go to the Campus Lounge. Its a real dive but great hockey bar. The owner (Jim Wiste) played at DU and in the NHL for a few years. Its about 2 miles north of the DU campus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScottM Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 Try to spend some time in the LoDo area. Very cool stores, restaurants and bars in a very well done part of town. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hayduke Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 Try to spend some time in the LoDo area. Very cool stores, restaurants and bars in a very well done part of town. Excellent point! I remember the "old days" before Coors Field. LoDo had a few nightclubs and bars, but overall it was a scary warehouse district. Coors Field changed everything. I never supported building the new Mile High or whatever they call it now. 8 home games? Not worth it. But, 80+ home games for baseball...all worth it. Thus, we now have this great area around Coors Field. El Chaputapec if you love jazz. It is about 3 blocks east of Coors Field and has been there forever. Quite a history of jazz music there. It was a stopover bar for great musicians to play between New York, Chicago, KC and the west coast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R_Schneider_4 Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 Does anyone know if there are any fan bus trips from Grand Forks/Fargo? The one out of Bismarck got cancelled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
