Officials outline plans for football home games - 08/30/04
Ohio State kicks off the 2004 football season with a home game on Saturday (9/4). The game against the University of Cincinnati will bring tens of thousands of people to campus. It is the first of six home football games this season.
Making the day as enjoyable, safe and family-friendly as possible is the goal of number of policy changes that will affect the game-day experience.
University officials will offer information on parking, stadium security and tailgating in a news conference at 10 a.m. on Tuesday (8/31) in the Ohio Stadium home media room. Media should enter gate 32 in the southeast tower and take the elevator to the third floor.
Those attending include Beth Kelley, associate director of transportation and parking services; and Richelle Simonson, assistant director of athletics.
Since this is a very busy time of year, these administrators may not be able to honor individual requests from news organizations for interviews. This is your best chance to gather information on home football games prior to the game on Saturday.
