The September 22nd road trip to see Fake Salt Lake nosedive is soon to be upon us!
There are important deadlines if you plan to fly there with our group (August 8th deadline, 5 days!) or stay in one of the hotels (September 7th deadline).
Please check now for all the details and to get signed up for the flights, tailgates, etc.!
Roadtrip Details: official letter from your Roadtrip Hosts!
No, not those two! They're just the FSL pizza delivery guys from a previous roadtrip.
PLEASE ask any and all questions to the Class VI Roadtrip Committee ... roadtrips@nofanalone.com
If you are not a season ticket holder, don't let all Rapids Season Ticket holder perks hold you back - though the bus is only for season ticket holders, but everything is on the light rail and people will accompany you to everything - the bar/restaurant, where the tailgate is, the hotels, and the stadium.
TAKE NOTE OF DEADLINES. Right now, I believe there are about 20 people committed to this trip - we want 30 more!!! Believe me, this is an absolute blast of a time. And while the team may be struggling, you'll forget a lot of it when the Rapids hoist the Rocky Mountain Cup in front of you at Rice Eccles!!
I'm going to be on vacation ... so please ask your questions to the email above ... and seriously consider this trip. You can pay for your flights online right here!
Big thanks to Tina, Kelsey, Marcus, & Chili for organizing this
Thanks,
Mark
