<p>fsu.edu</a> | Parents' Weekend 2007</p>
<p>Parents' Weekend has been set for October 24 & 25, 2008.</p>
<p>I have been out of the loop this weekend. I was out of town Fri-Sun (in Tally of all places) and got back in late last night after a 5+ hour ride :(. This AM had a busy day, just now checking emails for the last 24+ hours, and I had the email about parent's weekend. Hotels are already scarce, and the price for that weekend already high for a special event. I'd suggest getting a reservation soon. I wish I had known yesturday, I would have made one while I was there. My top three choices are full...but I did manage a reservation.</p>
<p>So what is the best way to get football tickets?</p>
<p>Buy season tickets...and a condo in Tallahassee. ;)</p>
<p>Laughing... (on P2noles comments). I made hotel reservations this am, but it was tough going. Found a deal on Priceline for $150 a night, but not in our first choice hotel. But it's in Tallahassee and it's not $300/night! I think football tickets go on sale this Friday evening 2/15 at 6 pm, based on what I heard while I was on hold.

<p>Question for you veterans: do your kids sit with you at the game at Parents' Weekend, or do they sit/tailgate with their friends? I am thinking they sit with friends but not sure (?) Wondering if we need to buy tix for s or whether he will get his own as a student. Help!</p>
<p>Our kids prefer to sit in the student section, where they stand and cheer most of the game. By comparison, the alumni section is boring.</p>
<p>Hotels in Tallahassee on game days typically go for double the regular rate and there is a two day minimum - if you can find one.</p>

<p>ROFL. Well that's not gong to happen!! So football tickets for parents weekend are harder to get than a hotel room?</p>
<p>Well, the early bird almost always gets the worm. :)</p>
<p>thanks for letting us know about the kids in the stands ... that's what I figured.</p>
