That's the beautiful five and a half hour stretch of grand American nothing between Las Vegas and Phoenix, Arizona, the last leg in the Good Hands Roadtrip and our path to the BCS Title game. We'll be in Vegas on Saturday night and driving in on Sunday, so don't be a stranger either on the Twitter (@edsbs) or in real life if you're around, especially since we'll be with Karlos Dansby on Monday at the Upper Deck Sports Grill from noon to 1 p.m. MST for the ticket giveaway, Q&A and trivia before the game. THAT'S RIGHT WE SAID TICKET GIVEAWAY. Save yourself a few grand and show up.
Additionally, if there's actually anything between the two we'll stop and see it as long as it isn't some kind of plot to get us kidnapped by mutant hill people. Okay, we'll stop especially if there's a chance of us being kidnapped by mutant hill people.

All I know is
there’s a Margaritaville on the Strip. And one next to the stadium in Glendale. You’re welcome.

Joshua Tree
is in So Cal. Unless you just mean there are some random Joshua Trees, in which case you’d probably be right.
it's an actual joshua tree forest
they occur across the southwest. but yes, joshua tree national park is in california. this is the joshua forest parkway.

If you were willing to tack an extra hour of driving time onto the trip
There are EXCEPTIONAL microbreweries in both Flagstaff and Sedona. If not, go to Four Peaks Brewery in Tempe for excellent brew and pub food. For someone that seems to appreciate non-chain eateries, there is nothing for you anywhere near the stadium. Where are you staying once you reach town?
Scottsdale
Some kind of resort, I think. <—-doesn’t even know where he’s going anymore.
Because college football is too important to be left to the professionals.
Good for you. I'm zero help west of downtown PHX
unless the question is “is this the way to LA/San Diego/Vegas?”
Old Town Scottsdale has all the fake boobs/flashy money club scene. There are excellent restaurants as well but, being Scottsdale, they think very highly of themselves (highly priced). I believe Sam Keller still bartends at Club 6.
Going South on Scottsdale Road takes you smack into ASU and Mill Avenue is home to the bar scene. Chuckbox is the burger place, Tops is the good liquor store, The Vine is the local shithole/dive bar, and Filiberto’s is the drunk food of choice. I really can’t recommend 4 Peaks enough though. Its on 8th between Rural (which turns into Scottsdale) Road and McClintock.
I can probably be of further assistance if you have any specific questions.
I have many fond memories of the vine
Teach for America does their summer institute training at ASU, and hundreds of rowdy, drunk teachers take over the Vine every june. It’s a craphole, but it was MY craphole.
Filbertos is also awesome, but only after midnight.
fb's green chili burrito will cure a hangover
although it’s similar to how a swift kick in the nuts cures a broken arm
Had a great meal at Cowboy Ciao in Scottsdale
Some sort of ancho pepper cream mushroom dish. I’ve copied the basic flavor many times in other dishes since so I forget what was in the original, but it was awesome. They also do tasting flights of wine and beer.
you might want to avoid the baja fresh next to the chandler mall, though.

Last time I was in Tempe (for the 2006-7 Fiesta Bowl) we spent a lot of time in this little hole in the wall bar call Six Shooters
When we went in there the second day, everyone in the bar knew us by name and drink.
Don’t know if it still exists but it was within walking distance of Sun Devil Stadium. If it’s still there, I highly recommend it. Good atmosphere good liquor selection.

Come see me when you get to the stadium
I’ll be one of many sad Auburn fans, standing around with a ridiculously large wad of cash that is probably still not large enough to purchase a ticket.

Much easier to ignore the questionable quality of things that are covered in cheese.
I know several of us Oregon fans about to do the same.
“Ticket prices should come down after the first quarter, right?”
Seriously...
just pass a couple bills to the ticket scanner. I have never done it, but apparently it happens all the time. Two young guys behind me at the BCSCG in Miami had done this. Not that I advocate lawlessness.
And when we were there in Jan. 07 my parents watched the game on TVs outside, but right before the end of the game people were just walking into the stadium, so they came inside and saw all the celebrating and trophy presentations.
"It's not gonna be free this time."
Not at UoP stadium.
They have turnstiles that only work after a valid ticket has been scanned. I have a couple of friends that were Cardinals “season ticket holders” for about $10 per game at Sun Devil Stadium and have not had the same luck since the team moved west.
Nope. Never been to either stadia in Glendale.
When i left the Valley the Cards played at SDS and the ’yotes played at AWA.
Well, my parents did come in at the end of the game in Glendale.
Through wide open doors. Was so glad they patted us down on the way in to the game and then apparently left the doors open on their way out. SECURITY!
"It's not gonna be free this time."
a lot of the bars and restaurants at westgate city center
which is right next to the stadium are preparing for larger-than-normal crowds. so even if you don’t get inside, you’ll prolly find plenty of fellow fans to enjoy the game with.

These tickets prices are outrageous.
If I can’t get a pair for $4000 I’m going to Vegas and playing blackjack all night long.
Much easier to ignore the questionable quality of things that are covered in cheese.
Yeah I know.
I know plenty of Bama people who went last year, and none of them paid more than $750 for a ticket. This game passed that mark minutes after the SEC Championship Game.
Much easier to ignore the questionable quality of things that are covered in cheese.
most folks i heard from that went last year said they paid between $1,200 to $1,500. the prices for game didn’t start out in that range but they damn well surpassed it in the last week or so. by a lot.

Oh I understand all the reasons
Just sucks that I’ve only been out of school and working for a few months. Had I any inkling of what this season would hold for us, I would have been saving up the whole time.

You never know - not going to the game could be a good move.

next season
may i suggest dibs.com (something like that). You basically buy an option to buy face-value tickets. you can also sell the option down the road if it gains in value. i used it down the stretch to get my tickets in ’08 and only ended up paying the $250 face plus whatever the option cost.

Seems like tickets should be considerably cheaper this year
Despite fewer seats, I think the total number of fans in the combined fanbase of Bama + Texas willing to pay their firstborn for a ticket is much higher than Auburn + Oregon. But that’s just my guess.

Southwest
Knows how to make a dollar, all of the flights out of BHM were over 800 before they sold out. Which is why I’ll flying around the US out of Huntsville before I arrive in Phoenix.

not so fast
Southwest will hike those fares like anyone else. Friends flying in from Austin last year paid 800+ on SWA. I met some Bama fans at the hotel that had to drive to Memphis for a cheaper flight.
The problem with your estimate
Is that Bama had won a national championship 17 years previously, and Texas had won one in the last 5 years.
Oregon: never (and yeah, their fanbase is noticeably muuuuuch smaller than Bama’s or Texas’s, but since 1992 they have been fairly dedicated).
Auburn: 1957.
Much easier to ignore the questionable quality of things that are covered in cheese.
Don't worry, I've been to the Fiesta Bowl twice,
once for the NC game. Both times got tickets for $100 each about 20 minutes before kickoff. Just be patient. Closer to the stadium the better. Because it’s not near a huge population center and party area, there aren’t nearly as many people competing for scalper tickets as at the Sugar or Rose Bowls (heck, even the Peach Bowl can be worse). You may pay a little more given the proximity of Oregon and the hunger of the fan bases (FSU were spoiled), but I still think $175 would be my absolute ceiling, and that’s for identifiably good seats.
OK, my numbers are low
Talked to a buddy and he said I’m behind the times. But he said <$400 is very realistic if you know how to bargain.
There won't be a lot of local demand because Phoenix simply isn't a college football town.
It will vary by the fanbases. I went to the ‘00 Fiesta between Tennessee (who was there the year before, as you very well know) and Nebraska for $100. I watched the Miami-tOSU ’03 Fiesta at a Mill Avenue bar with a group of 10 Buckeye acquaintences that couldn’t find a seat for less than $1500. I was offered free tickets for the ’04 Fiesta between tOSU and K-State of which there were literally thousands.
Problem is
that a disproportionately high number of Auburn fans are like, “Fuck it, we’re going out there anyway, taking cash, and hoping to land tickets.” I guess because it seems like such a possibly-once-in-a-lifetime opportunity considering it’s been quite awhile since 1957.
Much easier to ignore the questionable quality of things that are covered in cheese.
This was the issue for the '03 Fiesta.
I swear the entire state of Ohio was in Arizona. My roommate at the time hailed from OH and he knew about 15 people from his small hometown that were in Tempe without tickets. About 50 fraternity brothers showed up at our chapter house in need of lodging, about 5-10 of which actually had tickets. Mill Ave. was packed DURING the game, not just before and after.
Agreed
it does vary. OSU brings the heat more than anyone, that’s for sure. When OSU gets the Sugar Bowl, local merchants start salivating. But I have lots of experience with Auburn, and if Auburn-Alabama this year was that easy, I can’t see this game being that much harder. As for Oregon, I’m sure they’re excited, but their stadium only holds 54,000. Unless tickets for those games regularly exceed $1000, I have a hard time believing they bring the quantity of demand to create to bad a situation. (Not doubting the quality, that is, the deep pocketbooks of the fanbase.)
Seriously, you just stand your ground and hold your budget till kickoff
You walk up with what you’ll pay in your hand and you walk away when he says no. Talk to a few people as you walk to the stadium before you make any offers to establish a baseline. I paid $65 each this year for my Auburn-Alabama tickets that everyone claimed were going to be impossible to get. Granted, I was several minutes into the game before we got to our seats, but that was for club level seats (my budget was $50 each, I splurged for the quality).
Another great trick. Whiney wife/girlfriend knows that at some point her line is, “Come on, let’s just go meet Susan and Dave at the bar.” Then you “relent” and walk. I’ve used this trick four times and only once did the guy not yell after me.
Since I'm a girl
I guess little sister will have to pick up the “come on, let’s go” line.
It seems that my heretofore pleasant situation of nearly always being able to get tickets when I want them has done me the disservice of being ill-prepared to properly bargain. My only real experience was getting Independence Bowl tickets for $10 each…and I still felt like I was getting ripped off.

fury
I sincerely hope you don’t have the misfortune of having about 8 too many drinks and scalping fake tickets at a premium. I did this for the ATL – Saints Monday night game last year. Having scalped a bazillion tickets in my life, I sure as hell thought they looked real.

Saints tickets last year
were the most I’ve ever spent on tickets to anything. Went to 3 games and they kept going up. Paid $300 for a seat in the nosebleed section for the Cowboys game. What a waste of money that was.
But no, I plan to go against my usual habit and stay relatively coherent. If I’m gonna pay $2000 for a ticket to this game, I’m damn sure gonna remember every second.
Much easier to ignore the questionable quality of things that are covered in cheese.
It's a game of chicken and will
First off, the ticket-broker prices ahead of time are BS. They prey on your fears that you won’t get a seat (and few, if any, are actually sold at those newspaper-article prices). To a lesser extent, game day scalpers do the same. That’s why further from the stadium=more money and closer to kickoff=more money.
They also try to guilt trip you about how much someone else paid or how much they paid or how much face value is (even for huge games, I regularly pay under face value). All of that is irrelevant. If you’ve got 10 tickets in your pocket to sell (and I know you do, and your “partners” down the street have 50 more if those run out) and the streets are drying up, what you paid is irrelevant. Scalpers often give me legitimate scowls as I walk away (they often give fake semi-scowls to even sucker buyers). That doesn’t bother me one bit. You made your profit off of the first 20 suckers 3 hours before kickoff. My offer is about salvaging what you can and getting back to the hotel to drink.
Also, do look carefully at a ticket ahead of time (preferably in person, if not then online), noting holograms, etc. Fakes do exist, though I’ve only seen one ever that raised my suspicion.
i can tell you first hand...
those ticket prices are legit.
Roll 'Bama Roll: The Champagne of 'Bama Blogs.
Here's the thing about fake tickets
They just scan the tickets – they don’t detach stubs any more. Thus, a perfectly genuine ticket may not get you in the door, because:
1. It’s been reported as stolen. (This happened to my seats for the 06 Final Four — I had the valid ones, printed on Ticketmaster stock, not the pretty hologram tickets.)
2. Someone used it when doors opened, and then sent it out of the stadium with someone else to sell on the street.

You’ll drive through the Joshua Tree Forest where free range cattle may stop your trip. Then you drive onto a 2 lane dirt road. Then, 1/2 way down this dirt road, you are notified that it is now a private drive and may be closed at any time for any reason, then you hit crazy switchbacks. Do that for an hour at 5 MPH and you finally hit the Grand Canyon – but you get to pay to go look at it.

Serious question about Vegas
I have a friend who is going, he is 20. What will he be able to do?
He looks like he is atleast 25ish and has a big beard… if any of that helps.
Uhhhh
He’ll be able to do what every other 20 year old is able to do. Make sure he attaches his cellphone and wallet to himself. He’s getting really drunk. May even wake up without that beard and no memory of where it went.

The clubs in Vegas check IDs pretty hard
So, his best bet is to try gambling and getting drinks at the tables. He may or may not get carded depending on how he looks.
If that fails, the liquor stores will sell to just about anyone.
I'll be in town with a few other 'barners
thankfully we all have tickets. Drop me an email or I’ll shoot one to you. High potential to end up at a “less than fully clad” establishment Sunday night. Maybe we’ll see Cam there!
If I may recommend...
Dream Palace on Scottsdale Road just North of the 202 freeway. Those hot ASU co-eds you’ve heard of? They work there.
Christie’s on Baseline Road just east of I-10, across from the AZ Mills mall. It’s next to a Waffle House, which is handy.
Deja Vu on Washington Street, approximately the 5200 East block in Phoenix. Best slogan ever: “Hundreds of beautiful women and three ugly ones.” Also has easy access from Hwy 202.
If the address is on east Van Buren Street, it’s probably a very icky place. If toothless hookers and shitty blow are your thing, that’s the place to be.
Ah the Deja Vu
Proving once and for all that chains are always worse than their local “Mom and Pop” counterparts, even strip clubs. (exceptions can be made for the ASU crowd as everything is hotter in Arizona)
"Ah, that's repulsive, that's repugnant, that's recorrigible, that's retragnicent. These aren't even words. These aren't even wo...what am I saying, I don't even know. I can't go on, I can't go on anymore, make it stop." ~ Puppet Michael Floyd
I'm actually not a strip club guy.
If I wanted to pay that much to be teased I’d date a BYU sorority girl. HOWEVA, one of my employees once got into a wreck in a company vehicle about a half a block from it. I had to go down there, make sure he was ok, call the wrecker, and fill out the incident report. Due to the heightened stress of the incident he suggested we go inside to calm down. I was neither opposed nor disappointed. My $5 water was delicious and the scenery was quite nice.
Still, you’re correct. I hear better things about Dream Palace than any other.
First strip club experience was the Deja Vu in Minneapolis when I turned 18
I was underwhelmed. So I’m probably jaded against the entire chain. Do you know how bad a strip club has to be for an 18 year old to be underwhelmed at the thought of women taking their clothes off without asking anything more than a cover charge from you?

I don't know if you could pick a route where there is less to see.
There will be some scenery, as there is everywhere in the west. But other than that, you’ll be seeing lots of sagebrush, joshua trees, and dirt.
It’s too bad you’re not starting further north, because you could see the giant cinder block lady in the Rhyolite Ghost Town:

this story needs to be told.
’07 BCS Game UF v tOSU: A friend and myself flew out for the game had a blast blah blah blah, but….
Some of our other friends flew into Vegas first do do a little pre party, then drive down. As GB4188 pointed out above, there was a horrible snow storm on their way down and while making their way, came upon a man walking down the road in the middle of fucking nowhere, in the snow, stumbling. My friend’s wife and her bleeding heart made the guys pull over to ask to help, at roughly midnight. Mind you there are 4 people riding in a Ford Escape aready, and the driver( the husband) is an ex-marine who would beat up 6 people at a time for the hell of it in barfights, anyways…
They ask the guy if he wants a ride, he grumbles something and gets in. The man is a 6-3 Indian covered in tattoos and is completely shitfaced. They try the small talk but it doesnt work as the indian keeps nodding in and out of conciousness. After about 20 minutes in the darkened car, with 5 people now in the Ford Escape they hear a slight thumping noise, followed by a light groaning. The husband turns on the overhead light to illuminate the fact that the drunken indian is masturbating in the backseat of the car, sitting between his wife and her friend. The husband slams on the brakes, and they almost slide of the road. While his wife and her friend are screaming bloody murder, he rips the indian from the car and throws him face first into the snow on the side of the road. She talks him into not disembowling the guy right there on the highway, really not sure how, the husband was super fucking heated. From there they continued south to Glendale where they met us in the lot to begin tailgating that next morning. Orson, whatever you do my man, do not pick up anyone stumbling down the snowblasted highway in the middle of the night.
