Very nice facilities and location.
General parking was easy in and easy out. We were parked probably 200 yards from the stadium entrance. Plenty of PSU fans and alum from SoCal and flying in from elsewhere. Our seats were at the goal line where PSU enters, 25 rows up. Not too far up and not too low. Beautiful stadium in a great setting. Only two issues: more and larger replay screens and a victory by the visiting team.
Travel itinerary was a six-hour drive on Friday from metro Phoenix on I-10/210. Lodged in Monrovia, ten-minutes from the Rose Bowl. Hung out in Old Pasadena after the game as did many PSU fans. On Sunday, tried to get up to the Griffith Park Observatory, but it always seems to have a crowd and requires an up hill walk of about a mile. But, again, it was Sunday. The next time, we'll pay and take the shuttle up. Then we "drove west on Sunset to the sea" (Babylon Sisters, Steely Dan) to check out Pacific Palisades. It's pretty much cleaned up with a lot of house foundations. If AHs Bass and Newsom didn't slow walk permits, it could all be rebuilt in two to three years. We then met a young lady all decked out in PSU garb at a Santa Monica noodle joint. An Aeronautical Engineer just two years out of school and working in Cali. She's fed up with where the program is heading and was more vocal about it than me. Smart kids, those engineers. Anyway, back on the road with a straight shot home on I-10.
