Here are the answers to all your trip questions.

  1. Who is going?
    - There are a number of people going on the trip with different backgrounds, ages, and such. So please, be respectful and courteous to everyone on the bus or we'll throw you're ass out on Alligator Alley! ;-)
  2. Is smoking allowed on the bus?
    - NO. It is a smoke free bus.
  3. Is there a bathroom on the bus?
    - YES, thank heavens!
  4. Can I bring a cooler and food on the bus?
    - YES but please be respectful and clean up after yourself.
  5. Can I drink alcohol on the bus?
    - Drink whatever you like, but you may have to share with me!  ;-)
  6. Does the bus have a DVD Player?
    - YES. I'll be bringing the History of the Jets and the Super Bowl III Video to watch. If anyone else wants to bring something, let me know.
  7. Will we be tailgating when we arrive?
    - Unfortunately the answer is NO. Since we will be arriving close to game time and because I was told that the buses will be jammed in together like sardines, tailgating in the lot will not be possible. Then again... we will have 4+ hours on a bus to get our tailgating on, right!
  8. Can I bring a bag, food, camera, umbrella, etc into the stadium?
    - You can find all the Dolphin Stadium Rules by clicking here.
  9. What about the weather situation?
    - Not sure how to answer that. Looks like Hanna will be gone by Thursday but who know's where Ike will be come Sunday. This will be decided upon by Mother Nature and not me! Stay tuned for more details.
  10. Are Dolphin fans allowed on the bus?
    - JUST IN CASE SOMEONE HAS SLIPPED THROUGH THE CRACKS, LET ME BE CLEAR ABOUT THIS....

    NO DOLPHIN FANS ARE ALLOWED ON BUS!!!
