08/13/17 - Hershey, PA - Hersheypark Stadium

[goneshootin]

Forecast looking pretty good now! Anyone know the deal about tailgating? A quick google search seemed to indicate it is prohibited and/or painful...debating just going to a bar beforehand but would prefer to tailgate.

what time does GNR hit the stage?

[The Real McCoy]

We're next! See you all on Sunday! I'll be in section L! Back of the floor, but dead center!

@hollywoodzombie do you know of any good hotels nearby? I'm driving from NYC so it doesn't have to be right next to the stadium, rather drive 20 minutes than stay somewhere highly unpleasant. Any tips? thanks

Unfortunately I couldn't go this weekend so I had to refund my tickets 2 weeks ago. Sorry

So amped for tomorrow!!  Where the pre-show forum Meetup?  Had fun meeting people my couple GNR and Axl/DC shows last year.  Is there any cool bars/pubs around the venue?

[waveonetravel]

There's a place called Duke's Bar and Grill that's like 5 minutes from the stadium that has a sign outside saying, "Welcome Guns N' Roses fans" 

(Tried to post a pic but forum won't let me for some reason, weird?)

Thought that was pretty cool

I'm down, I've somehow missed every single meet-up, lol! I have to get a lith, 2 if I can, promised someone on the board. This doesn't seem like a very active thread so whoever is up for it, let's plan . What's the atomic photo, where Blondie shops?

Just got to our hotel staying at a sleep in about 6 miles from the park

[Mooch14]

We are driving over from CT and should be getting over that way sometime around 1'ish. Probably have to stop at that "Dukes" and grab some food and hang before the gig.

they're totally booked, the guy told me, "well, Guns n Roses is here". It is a decent place and probably the cleanest one around there outside of the $300 hotels. That Atomic store intrigued me and Harrisburg seems cool so I booked there. 25 min drive is nothing, I'm used to the hell that is NYC.  But that was a good tip and oriented me so thank you!

I can't wait for the Hershey Park themed GNR social media posts

McBob's intro should be something about Hershey being the "sweetest place on earth" until these guys showed up.

Chocolate world is a great place to visit. 

Duck doughnuts and Hershey pantry are good places for dessert. 

Funcks in palmyra has over 100 beers on tap, great food and not far from Hershey.

Most places in Hershey are nice, they keep shit clean because of all the tourists 

 

Hotels.
