Please also use the following
advice (Courtesy of Lehigh’s Panhellenic Council):
1.
Plan your route: know how you are
getting to the stadium and back home ahead of time.
2.
Stay with friends, do not find
yourself alone.
3.
Dress warmly! Wear layers- it’s
going to be cold (gloves, hat, ASA scarf!).
4.
BE SMART: especially regarding
public intoxication and Fake Identifications. You do not want to get arrested.
5.
Hydrate! Eat! Bring extra water
and snacks.
6.
In case you do not hydrate
enough, bring Advil with you!
7.
Make sure your phone is fully
charged and bring an extra charger.
8.
In case your phone does die,
write down important phone numbers.
9.
Bring cash with you!
