The team walk from the athletic complex to the stadium draws a real crowd on the surrounding streets.

L1C4 chant

Tailgating

The Papa John's lots and the Fairgrounds area carry the tailgate.
Fourth Street Live and NuLu are the postgame options downtown.

Nothing exotic is needed here; a light jacket for November evenings covers the schedule.
