Mr. Buddy Garrity Posted September 11, 2012 Report Posted September 11, 2012 I would get to the stadium by 4 or 5 if i were NED fans ;)

Or I-10 west to 59 south to 288 south. 288 south thru Pearland will be sssllllloooowww until at least beltway 8 in the afternoon. I won't lie to you, It (288 south) SUX that time of the day. Also there is a lot of parking. You just might have to walk a few blocks tho because it's pretty spread out.
Bulldogs2011 Posted September 11, 2012 Report Posted September 11, 2012 I would take I-10 west to Beltway South to 288 South. Might hit three tolls at $2 a pop but would be worth it.
bulldawg64 Posted September 12, 2012 Report Posted September 12, 2012 i heard you have to have a pass no people at toll booths?
19Bulldog99 Posted September 12, 2012 Report Posted September 12, 2012 Nederland hasn't played there in a while. I went to the last game at Angleton and believe the visitor side was bigger than Friendswood.
bobbymcgee Posted September 12, 2012 Report Posted September 12, 2012 The stretch of 8 you need to go on to get to Angleton takes money at the tolls. You don't have to have a toll pass. Definitely worth it.
rvbulldogs Posted September 12, 2012 Report Posted September 12, 2012 yep. Take the beltway. You need $5 to get to Angleton going thru the beltway. Another $300 for gas. Go Dogs!!!

Should be a little less congested than 288 through Pearland. But either way, you'll hit the traffic.As far as visitor parking, there is plenty of it. Don't worry about parking. And yes the visitor side is bigger than Friendswood, with more leg space.
tvc184 Posted September 12, 2012 Report Posted September 12, 2012 I am going to take Beltway 8 all the way from I-10 to 288. I have the EZ pass and just keep driving.

Purple/Silver/White Posted September 12, 2012 Report Posted September 12, 2012 Yeah, come to think of it, the beltway (which requires paying a few tolls) will put you on 288 south of (a lot of) the southbound rush hour traffic. After that, you'll be looking for the Angleton, 288 business (south) exit, and follow 288B til you reach fm523 and then make a left there (south). You will then travel a little over a mile until you see the high school (and the stadium) on your right. Make a right @ the light just before the school and then you are there!
Purple/Silver/White Posted September 12, 2012 Report Posted September 12, 2012 This would be a good route if you don't mind tolls on beltway 8, and it would probably have the least amount of traffic. Only thing is there are a few lights to deal with when passing thru Pearland and Alvin:I-10 West to Beltway 8 South (then West) around to hwy 35 south, thru pearland and alvin down to fm523, then north (right) about ~2 miles. School will be on your left, stadium will be behind the school, at the end of campus drive which is the first light just past the school. (you can't miss it)
