BryceC: It really depends how you approach Ames... from the South or East, get there early. From the West or North, you should be okay with an 8 o'clock arrival as long as you use non-traditional paths to the stadium. IE: North, come through Pamel Court; West, come through Lincoln Way. Basically stay away from HWY 30 or Interstate 35 then stay away from Elwood, East Lincoln Way and 4th/3rd Street. - keep.
