Who's going to the game Friday?

[MURFC]

Flying out Friday and will be at the game with three other alums.  Got my ticket notifcation this afternoon.  Pumped!

Got my tickets through MU, just booked hotel.  Rooms still available at Hilton/airport (EWR-Newark) for $149, couple blocks to MU reception Hotel (sold out), couple miles to Prudential Center (MU providing shuttle service from reception).  Airfare was a bit expensive to Newark from O'Hare on American.  Maybe try LGA?  I think it's 30-40 minutes away?

Let's Go MU!  I'll bring whatever voice I have left.

MarqKC will be there with KC_Warrior and @joegrim.

Any locals able to provide some insight on how to best get from LGA to EWR via public transportation Friday and/or Sunday?

Not sure about LGA, but get yourself to the City...then take the the NJ Transit line from Penn Station NYC, to Penn Station Newark.  It's a lot faster than taking the PATH, and $5 each way.  Penn Station Newark is like a 5 minute walk to the Pru.

I know there are busses that run from Grand Central Terminal to the airports so I would suspect there are busses that run between the airports and Penn Station.  Then see reinko's note about NJ Transit.


If you had flown into JFK you would have had the option of taking the monorail & subway all the way to Penn Station.

A local (my son, actually) uses Google Maps on his smartphone. After entering and getting driving directions from "current location" to destination (and it recognizes public buildings like the Pru Center), you'll see a public transport icon at the top of the screen. click on that, and based on the time it is and where you are, it'll show you bus/train options, departure times, transfer points and arrival times. I've done it and it works. Pretty cool.

Flying in today from Arizona for the big game.  Looking forward to a great weekend.

Go Marquette!

How long would you estimate the trips from both LGA and JFK would each take to Penn-Newark?

I just found out that I have an extra ticket for the game tomorrow so if anyone is still looking I'm trying to sell it to a Marquette person rather than scalping it. Post here and let me know so we can try to work something out.

I hope this helps.
