Clt starts the appy appreciation page

Not sure that’s correct as we’ve been told visitor allotment is sold out

Yea no offense 49er1, but you are wrong. There’s not a seat available in either of the two visitors sections lol

Someone in Boone has to color in the dots with a pencil, take a picture of it, go to the kiosk outside of Ingle’s to get it developed, drive to Blowing Rock to have it scanned and then upload it to their website. It will get updated by Tuesday.

clt is fine with this series going away, we have already passed appy by.

I just want us to play hard and smart for four quarters and leave there looking forward to 2026 ( or a Charleston Bowl). A win would be incredible, but making them sweat at home would be progress and a springboard for a Bowl season.

My bad. I looked first on my phone and missed the legend. On my PC it’s clear 208 and 209 are sold out.

Our ticket office told me that verbally as well.

Oh yeah. The Hot Green Corner at the rock.

Ok Niner fans. I’ll be pleased to answer serious questions about game day. One hint. Some pay lots are alcohol free like churches and if you tailgate do not have any liquor bottles showing. The police will make you pour it out and you may get a ticket. Beer is fine. Traffic into town and construction is a mess around the stadium so plan to get there couple hours before gametime. You are sitting on the east side which is the full sun side. Anytime from noon through 5:30 could be tough. I will not answer questions about the track, ice, outhouses or location of Zaxby’s Or parentage. Glad so many of you are coming. Our tailgate spot is spaces 85-92 on the top of the new deck next to Eggers Dorm. You will see a Pi Kappa Phi flag flying. Drop by before or after the game. If I see green I’ll come welcome you. Ask for BigDave

Where do visiting fans typically park? I can’t find anything on the internet. Is the most common method “drive to boone and pray”

if you want to have a beer in most of these lots bring your red solo cup:

Please be aware that the Town of Boone has an open container law that prohibits open alcoholic beverages on public property including streets and sidewalks in downtown Boone. Appalachian State University also has similar policies on campus property. However, many parking areas permit tailgating and some permit alcoholic beverages.

PARKING TIPS:

When you enter a parking lot, before you pay, make sure you ask if they allow tailgating. Some lots allow tailgating and some don’t. If tailgating is allowed, make sure you ask if they allow grill and alcoholic beverages on the property. Again, some parking lots do and some don’t.

FOOTBALL PARKING AREAS:

Each of these four routes will begin running 5 hours before kickoff and cease running 2 hours after the game has ended. The schedule for these routes can be found here.

Special Routes - Non Saturday Games
When Appalachian State football hosts a game on a day other than Saturday and if all Appalachian State classes are cancelled, AppalCART will follow the special Saturday schedule outlined above. If classes are not cancelled, AppalCART will run the normal schedule for that day.

PARATRANSIT SERVICE AND PARKING SHUTTLES- Two paratransit vehicles and one bus will shuttle passengers between the Stadium and the Hill Street Parking lot behind the Convocation Center. These routes begin five hours before game start and run until the 4th QUARTER. At the beginning of the 4th QUARTER, a bus (with mobility device ramps) will be stationed outside of the EAST GATE at the STADIUM to transport paratransit passengers to the Hill Street Parking lot for two hours after game ends. Paratransit vehicles will be running until Stadium Drive is blocked near the end of the fourth quarter and will resume after Stadium Drive is opened.

On home game days, AppalCART also operates a shuttle connecting the Human Services Center (132 Poplar Grove Connector) and the Peacock Traffic Circle.

​​

All Game Day Routes begin 5 hours before game time unless normally scheduled to begin earlier and end 2 hours after game time or at their scheduled Saturday end times, whichever is later. View our SYSTEM MAP for more information.

SorryI do nt know of any from Blowing Rock. Uber will be a best bet. Arrange ahead of time.

Thanks @BigDave13, you have done a terrific job sharing important information. This will help everyone have a safe and fun trip. You are a good host.

(This may be the last nice thing I can say to you for a while. Hope you understand.)

I understand… FYI the NCHP that work 321 and 421 and all App grads. They see Green and they get excited.

clt plans to roll up, park at the Wendy’s and walk to the game with no ticket

Clt will be paying $60 to get the boot removed from his car and will watch the game outside a fence…

Can he see the game from the second floor of the Wendys?
