One of my friends and I will be going to the game at Penn State this weekend. Neither of us have been to Happy Valley before so we have no idea what to expect. Since it was a last minute decision by us, hotels were impossible so our tentative plan is to drive up to just east of Pittsburgh Friday night and stay in a hotel (we're coming from Cincy area).

1) Any recommendations for things to do pregame?

2) Recommendations for parking?

3) Anything else we should know?

All recommendations are welcome.
