Everything has gone great so far. Easy drive across S. Georgia this morning. Spent a couple of hours checking out the town. Bigger than I thought and much hillier.
Hotel had both red and white and garnet and gold balloon decor and a free beer/wine/munchies reception for all this evening. Turns out they have set up a $10 hotel-stadium shuttle for Saturday....wish I had known about it before I made other, and more expensive plans.....but they said it didn't come together until two days ago.
Everyone has been most welcoming. Several FSU folks have come up and shook my hand and said how well they were treated in Norman last year. Mixed crowd at the restaurant and everyone very respectful and good natured.
Will try and take in the Titanic Artifact Exhibit at the Mary Brogan Museum tomorrow morning while killing time until the game.
Fans on both sides nervous about the game and I have seen no one shooting off their mouth.
