The Nutcracker Kansas City Theatre reviews
VERY EXCITING MATCHUP!
I appreciated deeply the stadium in The Nutcracker. The fans went wild, and fireworks went off every time they scored. It was the way a football game is supposed to be.
Their defense was catching up with Auburn offense after S.C. scored the second time. I figured that momentum on their side and (being at home)...
...so I learned that they had lost only after I got to the restaurant downtown Columbia.
But what a great effort on their part.
Fun parking, no official lots available. You had to plop past a family's house to park in their backyard. They figured people are going to be illegally parking in their front yard anyway - so might as well profit from it!
On the way back to the car, farmers parked 10 or 12 deep, with their little kids selling the elusive boiled and fried peanuts (at least in VA). They are an acquired taste, but you won't be able to put them down.
Keep a keen eye on how you get in and out of there. This stadium is huge, bigger than most pro stadiums, and one side is basically blocked off. So, you pretty much are bound to walk back to your vehicle the same way you came in...as opposed to the closest distance between two points being a straight line.
In other words, you could really get turned around there.
There were lots of gorgeous women there as well, in and around the stadium...for those who are interested in such things.
