They are calming students down by playing their grandparents' music.

You ain't kidding. Right now they're playing Can't Find My Way Home. 1969!

Why not drive? That's what I'm doing. No traffic and free parking next to campus means it's going to be way faster than taking BART
Please check back in and let us know how well this logic ages.

Parking in RSF Garage was no problem at 3:00 am. I'm guessing there will be garage space somewhere among the four garages available at 5:00 am...

I'm up and debating whether to go now or wait. Is the pit already full? Is there any reason to come now or should I wait an hour?

The students went crazy at 11:30 pm.

Avinash tweeted video of it. His tweet went viral (It has 232,000 views as I type).

But things quickly calmed down, as Avinash subsequently tweeted. Unfortunately, Avinash's tweet is still gaining attention, including from Kirk Herbstreit (who probably just landed a few minutes ago).

They're starting to play their parents music.

The "pit" is packed but the whole glade behind the stage still has a lot of room at the moment

Incredible turnout, scroll back around 39min from posting time for the segment with Desmond Hoard at the Glade.

So far I've seen fans from Oregon, Oregon State, Alabama, Tennessee, Ohio State, Oklahoma, LSU, Clemson, BYU, probably some others, can't remember. Some Miami fans, not a huge number.

ESPN did a bit of pre-show coverage a few minutes ago. The crowd looks great!! Herbstreit kept commenting on the energy and crowd turnout at such an early hour.

We just grabbed free burritos and fizzy water. Plenty of free food still available!

Favorite nerdy historian sign I've seen out here:

So... do we think the early Bart service is gonna be arriving too late? Coming from the city it seems like the only reasonable option

What's the issue? Are you worried that the parking lots are going to fill up at 5 in the morning?
I think they just may, but roll the dice.
I have had a change of plans, but once they added the extra early BART trains, it was my bet that BART was best for me coming from the Salinas area.
I think you're greatly overestimating just how many non-students are going to show up at 5 in the morning for a college football pregame show prior to a 7:30pm game.
Mmmm. maybe. Time will tell. Please just check back, please.




I left the Richmond at 5:30, got parked by 5:55. Plenty of space in the GPB lot.

So much for the claims that no one would show up for Game Day before dawn. Great showing everyone!

Red hats???

I'm reminded of when after The Play the school newspaper Daily Cal that was swapped out in a spoof by Stanford, it said the game finals score had been overturned.

Who the hell arranged for Red Hats?
Jesus Christ, burn those things. Have a Jan 6 level riot against those people wearing em.
