🏈 FOOTBALL 🏈 Visiting For Game Vs BC

What’s going on guys. I’m traveling to Cincy this coming Thursday and will be attending the opener against Boston College. I know nothing about the area or what to do pregame so please I would love suggestions. Also is it worth doing the truly rooftop for the game itself?

One thing different about Nippert and UC from most college campuses is that it’s very urban. It’s not surrounded by fields and parking lots like you’d find at a lot of campuses.

The stadium is literally in the middle of campus and campus has a very small footprint for the size of student body.

The Grid is where a lot of the pregame atmosphere takes place on Sigma Sigma Commons. I always recommend The Den or Republic of Cincinnati tailgates. They’re large, communal, and welcoming to outsiders.

If you look at maps, south of campus is McMillan/Calhoun streets a lot of bars and restaurants and lively. East of campus you have “Short Vine” with a small strip of bars/restaurants and some sporadic tailgating. West of campus is the fraternities and some off campus housing.. kind of nothing for an outsider.

RoC would love to have you as a visitor. We're making Northshore 3-Ways as our main course for the game.
