Get their REALLY REALLY early. That's the one thing I'm sure of.

My advice as a local:
Find someone to tailgate with. Eat and drink as MUCH as you can before you go inside the stadium.

I feel sorry for out-of-towners that go and spend $100 for food and drinks during a game.

I don't spend more than $17 a game.

When I have gone, I usually try to get to the game a hour to hour and half before kickoff, there is a lot to see and do during the pregame[/QUOTE I did the stadium tour earlier today..... i'm currently in Stadium Club partaking in an alcoholic beverage.... or 5

Bring money. Parking at the stadium is $50. Beer is $8.

My advice.

Look at your ticket and see which gate you are required to go in. Then figure out where you need to park. Parking is not 50 dollars, I pay 30 dollars every week and park on randoll mill road. You have to go in your gate though and to walk around the building is a pain so make sure you are on the right side.

The plaza gates open at 9 tomorrow and the stadium doors open at 10. So no matter how early you get there you can't get to your seat until 10 or into the plaza until 9.

If you want to meet mike fisher, bryan broaddus or any part of the fan's pregame show Jessie holley included they do the pregame on the west side plaza and are always pretty pleasant when you talk to them if they are hanging around.

Remember to cheer on defense not offense.

Word, do I need to buy a parking pass before hand or can I purchase one tomorrow morning when I get to the stadium

You need to have a parking pass in advance. The only chance left to get one is the ticket exchange. Honestly though depending on which side of the stadium you are parking at you can park for 30 bucks on the streets down from the stadium..it will about 10 to 15 minutes to your walk though.

No, you can still get parking tickets tomorrow. You don't have to park right there at the stadium. There are other parking spaces available close to the stadium or in closer distance. They charge $40, $30 or only $20 (behind Rangers Ball Park). Depends how far you want to walk to At&t stadium.

Don't worry about autographs. Go to some event or training camp if you really need those. There are 53 players and 100k fans.

You need to decide if you want to hang around the parking lot or go in to the stadium and look around before the game starts. I guess if you go early enough, you could hang in the parking lot and still go into the stadium to look around.

Find your seat before the last minute. You don't want to be looking around for your seat when they kickoff.

If you don't park where you can tailgate, you might try taking a throw-away Styrofoam cooler and walk around the parking lot(s). It's fun to walk around and talk to people that are tailgating. The ones that have up close parking are often hard core tailgaters. I've done it by sticking some beer bottles in my pockets, but I think a throw-away cooler would work well.

i just did the stadium tour & made a point to identify my seat before hand. Great advice for the styro cooler though. I will definitely do that! Thanks X
