Staying in Philly on Friday after taking in the Cubs/Phillies. Going to the game and then going back to Harrisburg. Hotels in State College are insane.

Not many quality hotels for any reasonable rates at this point in the State College area....my advice is to stay at a nice hotel in Philly, enjoy a Philly cheese steak, run the steps like Rocky.

Not sure when we will know a concrete time but PSU is known for having their season openers at 12 noon. So I would plan on that for now.

Our group is 10 deep. 5 for each team. Found an Air BnB. Not cheap but puts everyone together within walking distance of stadium, restaurants, and bars.

Not expecting us to win this one but I was grown up on PSU football so I've been waiting YEARS for this game to happen and will be there with our 5 month old son. Gotta teach that boy that we follow App everywhere from a young age! haha

Ok. Two of my Penn State alum coworkers said Harrisburg vs Altoona. They said if driving up I 81 it was good and that there was more to do and more lodging options. I’m finding rooms in State College in the high $200 but no Saturday drive time required.
