My buddy and I are planning to attend the opening weekend of this year's CWS, regardless of the Aggies' presence or absence. Need advice from those who have attended previously. We will be pretty price conscience in regards to hotels and such so any deals in that regard would be great as well.

Thanks & Gig Em

Just a general price conscious way to save on hotels- if you or your buddy work for a large company, see if any hotels have corporate rates for employees of your company. We get 10-15% off most that we stay at.

Buy tickets early, before any teams get too hyped up and tickets become scarce. Uber is in Omaha, so maybe save there instead of buying a parking pass.

The only ticket that is tough to get is the opening game. Other tickets you can get cheap on Flash Seats, but they shut down sales about 3 hours prior to the game.

My son and I are making the trip this year (whether or not the Ags make it). I already have 2 hotel rooms reserved. Now I'm looking for how to get tickets.

Any advice here? Buy GA tickets now? Or pay more for reserved? Wait until we get there and buy off Flash Seats?

TIA!

GA tickets are in the outfield. You will burn up out there so bring sunscreen. The view is fine out there too. If you are only going to a game or two, I would splurge and get covered seats.

You'll be the Aggie representative, with maybe a few others in the stands. Enjoy the experience.

Stay in Council Bluffs right across the river to save on hotels. Five minute drive to the stadium.

Dad and I have gone the last 10 years. We always buy tickets from locals selling them outside the stadium and rarely pay anything over face value. We also make sure to buy in the shade for day games, which is around row 25 or higher. For hotels, could also check AirBNB for places to stay.

Omaha is a blast and there's always a few Ag's around every year
