vegas to glendale bus trips for the Semi

If we win Sat, it looks like it is almost guaranteed we are playing in Glendale on NYE.
We have already reserved the buses for Tigers fans staying in Vegas.
Same deal as last year for the Natty
T-Mail for specifics
We took 7 buses of Tigers fans from Vegas to Glendale and back last year.
Could be an epic trip: Semi in Glendale and NYE in Vegas!!!!

Is this just the bus ride or is this a hotel/ticket package?

Last year we left from Ballys - right in middle of the Strip
We dropped off 5 buses back there, and 2 at airport
Ride was 4.5 hours, with a pit stop.
We had BYOB

Flights to/from Vegas are cheaper, as are hotel rooms for couple days of travel
Plus you get to experience Vegas vs Phx area
There were thousands of Clemson and Bama fans in Vegas last year. I did 7 buses with no time to plan. With 3 weeks notice we still should have a bunch of Tiger fans traveling.
Be the same this year, especially if we get the early game and could potentially be back on the Strip for NYE local time

I did not take your bus last year, but did fly into Vegas for much cheaper. I had never been to Vegas before, but what made the trip better was seeing Clemson fans everywhere.
The drive to Phoenix was not bad and I got to see some of the country I had never seen. It was a blast but I bet the bus trip would have made it even better. Party with fellow Clemson fans.

The 2 Semis - ATL and PHX are on NYE this year. Will change going forward
The other "big" bowls will be NYD, as usual

looking at flights and hotels this morning, and the prices are about the same for the 2 trips
However, if last year is any indication - once the teams are announced, the airline tickets will go bonkers.

We don't need to focus. Players and coaches do. Fans can focus on travel plans, vacation for work, etc or what to buy kids for Christmas.
I guarantee that Clemson has someone already planning on travel plans for the team and support staff to either Atlanta or Glendale.

I was on the bus last year and had a blast (and might even go again), but first, does anyone know of a bus going to the ACC championship from ~Clemson area this weekend? Would like the convenience of just jumping on one from here...

I heard a radio ad for one. Sounded expensive. But the ad was on the local radio this morning. Think the package included ticket? And maybe even a room on Sat night in Orlando

Bump for Wed morning
After the rankings show last night, provided we win Sat, it is looking more and more like we are in Glendale again.
Committee could move Ohio State to 4th, to punish them for not playing in a Championship game this weekend. But I still think the odds of a Clemson-OSU matchup in Glendale are pretty strong

for those making travel plans........the airline prices to PHX have steadily increased over the last several days. I think that only goes up quicker once the teams are announced Sun at noon.
I haven't tried to make hotel reservations in PHX area, but heard from someone else that the prices were rather steep.
