Used to have a spectacular, Sunday
breakfast/brunch buffet out there many years ago. I Haven't been there recently, however.

I’m booked.
I thought it was a good deal at under $150 per night with their amenities on a game weekend

Yeah I was a little skeptical booking through Trip Advisor app as it was about half any other site to book there.
$328.62 after taxes & fees for 2 nights (nonrefundable)
Never really seen that kind of price variation before. I'll call Marriott direct to confirm today
That is a great deal for two nights at the Marriott Griffin Gate. 30-35 years when I still lived in Lexington right after graduating me and my friends used to go out there one or two Saturday nights a months at their bar. I haven't been on their property since then but when I drive by there it still looks well-kept.
I'm sure you've checked it out on the map.... While it's close to I-64/I-75 and horse farm country north of the interstate, there are not a lot of amenities close by (fancy restaurants, shopping etc.). Anyway, have a safe and enjoyable trip apart from the final score LOL.
I hate BamaI don't think the raptors travel to away games. They've done The Olympics and other events but I don't think they travel to away AU sporting events.
On the other hand, Aubie will be there and everywhere. Kind of like the AllState mayhem guy
So i have received an email to claim my digital tickets for Auburn @ Kentucky that were purchased through the SeatGeek app.
Never had a problem with these type tickets before but apparently they don't all work exactly the same based on the venue so that is why I have come back here to ask if any of you may have purchased tickets in the past using SeatGeek or any other for games at Kroger Field.
The email says....
Tickets to your event are managed by a third-party app used by Kroger Field. Because of this policy you won’t be able to access your tickets directly in your SeatGeek account. You will need to visit the provided link and sign in or register for an account, then accept the ticket transfer.
You should accept your ticket transfer as soon as possible, within 48 hours of receiving the transfer notification at the latest.
Click the link below to claim your tickets now!
The email contains a link to click in order to "claim your tickets now"
On my iPhone.....the link opens in Chrome or Safari web browser for me just fine and the 2 tickets are there with bar codes and the bar codes are animated for the purpose of not being able to do an effective screenshot (I am assuming that's the reason) In fact it states on the ticket "screenshots won't get you in"....No problem there.
The problem is I don't see any option for actually storing these digital tickets in my wallet on the iPhone as is usually the case with all other digitally formatted tickets I have purchased for various other events including home games at Auburn.
The only option I see is to share these (transfer) to another email.
On my desktop PC.... Using Chrome browser,..link in the email behaves in same manner BUT on each ticket is a clickable icon that says "Open On Wallet". What good is that on a PC? Besides, when clicked it doesn't react in any way.
There is no place provided to sign in or create an account as it states in emal.
So I am asking here hoping that the Kroger Field digital tickets are specific to this issue that Im having and that yall could probably help.
I can presently access the tickets through the link via a Chrome or Safari web browser that redirects me outside the SeatGeek app or site but have no idea if that link will work on Oct. 26
Thank you if anyone has any suggestions. Ive read some FAQ and stuff on SeatGeek app but nothing that addresses this specific issue

CLIFF-Hare stadium?!??I don't think the raptors travel to away games. They've done The Olympics and other events but I don't think they travel to away AU sporting events.

The first major expansion came in 1949, when the wooden bleachers on the east side were replaced with permanent seats and more seats were added to the west grandstand. This brought capacity to 21,500, and the stadium was renamed Cliff Hare Stadium
a member of Auburn's first football team as well as Dean of the Auburn University School of Chemistry and President of the Southern Conference
Shug Jordan became head coach of the Tigers in 1951. He was still coaching when his name was added to the stadium in 1973, making it the first stadium in the United States to be named for an active coach
Makers is a bit out of the way, Beam a little less so, but if you're wanting the old distillery tour experience somewhere between Louisville and Lexington, go to Buffalo Trace in Frankfort.
Better book now, you might even be a bit too late for anything decent or reasonably priced. You might look on the outskirts of Lexington, Frankfort, Georgetown, Richmond, to find something reasonably priced not too far away.
Im booked at Griffin Gate Resort for lodging
Im booked for tastings at Old Forester, Woodford, Castle & Key and Wild Turkey
But I need help with downloading digital tickets from Kroger Field, can't see how to store them (my post up above from an hour ago)
I'd be a bit apprehensive about something like this, because the cell/WiFi coverage is garbage at Kroger Field.
You beat me to it. We'll see if they've improved the WiFi coverage at Commonwealth Stadium; I'll be pleasantly surprised if they have.
@TripleWood ..... Sorry that I can't help you with getting the tickets into your iPhone wallet, but I respectfully recommend you get this resolved before game day.
WiFi and cell phone internet access is horrible around Jordan Hare also.
Guess I can try and navigate to the link and have ready before getting close to Kroger Field
I got a reply from SeatGeek....
Please note that these tickets cannot be added to your wallet; they will only be available via the link. Additionally, taking a screenshot is not recommended, as the rotating barcodes will not function properly if captured. I understand this may seem unclear, but rest assured, this method has been reliably used by sellers to fulfill orders, and your tickets will remain valid.
I’ve never done formal “tastings” though I took an early Woodford tour 20 years ago.
When Bill Curry was our Coach in the 90’s I drank a lot of bourbon during the games. A semi-conscious state made the football a tad more tolerable. Curry tried to make up for our lack of SEC talent with poor coaching.
As to your tech issue, I mean no offense by suggesting a trip to your local public/university library wherein folks in their 20’s work . . . folks whose first words included “mouse,” and “Windows.”
I’m never shy about asking a 20 year old for puter/i-phone advice, and they are very forthcoming, typically.
Good Evening
Wanted to check in for a foliage report
Heading up for the Auburn massacre next Thursday
Looking for positive vibe on this trip. Since winning football doesn’t seem to be an option I’m looking forward to colorful foliage.
Thanks

Don't know if this helps much, but here's the view of the trees in my neighborhood in Louisville. It's been pretty cool up here most of the week so it might cause the colors to change more quickly.
I haven't been out driving around looking at trees to see how it is elsewhere.
Where is that? Would that happen to be in Hillview area?Don't know if this helps much, but here's the view of the trees in my neighborhood in Louisville. It's been pretty cool up here most of the week so it might cause the colors to change more quickly.

Got a spot to park at Victorian Square garage. Seems to be near some decent food and drink areas?
Do our tailgating downtown in other words
Figured we'd shuttle to/from Kroger Field to/from Rupp ?
Does this seem like a decent plan since we wanted to bar hop a bit downtown before heading to campus? It wasn't expensive.
Just got to remember to have that dollar bill on hand for the blue bus

Take a drive down to The Gorge (Red River Gorge). Natural Bridge area. 1 hour from Lexington. Has a lodge, sky lift and such. You might get some color but not much yet. Was there last weekend a smidge of color, live about 30 minutes away. Good trails and such and more food available down there over the past several years.
Four Rose's is one of the better tours I've been on especially if you're going to Lawrenceburg. Might also suggest Castle and Key. Small distillery but beautiful.
I drove down to the Tennessee line yesterday for work, and back, on I-75, and had a pleasant surprise with the colors. Not as vibrant as in two/three more weeks, but well on the way. More reds than yellows, so far.
Lol.
I suspect the game to be decided by a botched field field goal and/or a fumble that finds the wrond end zone.
My call: Cats 3-2 in a pitching duel for the ages!!
You’ll do we’ll with that plan. I never go downtown on game days, as I’m coming from the South, but you can sniff out some good places, I’m sure.
Thursday
Old Forester
Michters
Friday
Woodford
Castle and Key
Wild Turkey
Saturday
Watch 3 quarters of AU football
Sunday
Buffalo Trace
The game might be “called” by the third quarter for both irrelevance and incompetence!
Can I slip a bottle in the gate at Kroger Field?
Didn’t bring my normal devices for smuggling.
It’s pretty easy at Jordan Hare
Gonna need a few Kentucky hugs this evening I’m pretty sure. Kind of cool out.
Pretty good number of AU folks out here at Griffin Gate

They likely will ask you to empty pockets. I hide my Skoal can behind my wallet, tight against my arse.
For a bottle, I typically put it in my sock, or top of my boot if wearing boots.
Oddly, since the hiring of Rich Brooks, I quit sneaking bourbon into home games: we might actually win a game, and I’m sober for the finish.
Hell, during the Bill Curry years you could smell the bourbon EVERYWHERE in the stadium, and God knows we needed it. 60,000 drunk Baptists and Presbyterians watching the worst football imaginable!!
I know you hit the Bourbon tours.
Did you go out to Keeneland?
If not, run out there Sunday. There is a lot of construction going on, but it’s worth the trip for a couple of hours.
