Apparently at last weekend's Gopher football schedule home opener at the brand new TCF Bank Stadium, there were some little...glitches...for the fans attending the game. We just received notice down here at Ticket King Saint Paul that they're working to fix some of those glitches to make the game a more enjoyable experience for all of you attending the game. The most noted changes should be...
1. There were some line issues at last weekends Gopher football game. Some fans had to wait in line for up to half an hour just to get through the entry gates! To help combat this, they will be opening the gates two hours prior to game time, opening two additional gates that went unused last weekend on the East side of the stadium and staffing more people at each gate to speed up the entry process.
2. There was a food shortage and long wait times for concessions at last weekend's game. In response to this, they will be adding additional portable food stands around the stadium to increase supply (and help decrease lines), double the number of sellers that run up and down the stands with concessions and increase their food storage.
3. There was a long wait for the post-game shuttle service to the U of M St. Paul campus. To make sure this doesn't happen again, the University will be adding buses with multiple doors to speed up transit/getting on and off the bus, close part of the route the bus takes to non-buses, add signage to waiting areas to combat confusion and also add a disability only shuttle service at a separate location.
Sounds like lots of changes that they'll be employing to fix some of the glitches they saw last week! Still want to go to the game? Gopher football tickets are still available for Saturday's game, and can be picked up at our Minneapolis storefront! give us a call at 651-298-8100 today!

I would recommend buying a TCF Bank Stadium Parking pass before you head to any Gopher games - otherwise you have to park off site and take a shuttle.
