    The reason I ask is because I am alone, and I was planning on doing some of those places if you didn't mind the company.

    I hate to be a noodge, but could we get someone to verify that this place is really there. There's nothin' on internet maps and the name doesn't bring anything up either.

    We'll be at the Wyndham! Didn't know it would be football central. So excited. Driving to Montego Bay on Sat. Sep. 8 - it's my birthday. :)

    And thank god for the AO and their tickets.

    Just ordered 4 tickets from AO. We are a group of 4 staying at the AO hotel, but not part of the AO travel package. We are looking into transportation options. So far Reggae-Tour has offered us $405 R/T for the 4 of us. What have others found from Hilton RoseHall?

    Can someone help me understand the time in Jamaica? Are we 1 hour ahead...or is that just because they don't do daylights savings?

    So 8pm kickoff? Someone told me that there's no daylights savings so that confused me a bit.

    I believe it is an 8pm eastern time kickoff which would mean 7pm local time.

    Are you arriving on the flight from Miami? If so, I will be on the same flight- maybe we can share a cab to the Wyndham?

    Attention travelers,

    The AO pre-game meetup bar has changed. It is now the Alhambra Inn and Resturant, 1 Tucker Avenue, Kingston 6 Kingston, Jamaica. Look forward to seeing you all down there!

    I'm on the same flight with my buddy -- headed to the Wyndham.

    Do we have a Wyndhamn brigade pre-game meeting time and place?

    FYI for those who are still looking for tickets the Wyndham is advertising "grandstand" tickets for $3500 Jamaican or ~$40

    There is a poolside bar area that would likely be the best place to meet. A 10:30 arrival at the airport means probably 11:15-11:30 ish arrival after customs and the taxi ride into town
