Orange Fans Only
The place to get your football fix this fall is Boone Pickens Stadium where the Cowboys have one of the most anticipated non-conference schedules in the country, taking on Georgia, Houston, Rice and Grambling State. The home conference slate kicks off October 17 when the Pokes host Missouri during America's biggest Homecoming celebration, followed by high-octane showdowns with Texas and Texas Tech. The home schedule concludes with a special Thursday night tangle with Colorado on Senior Night.

But Gameday isn’t just about football. It’s a celebration of Cowboy sports and Orange Pride. Boone Pickens Stadium, with the Wild West Zone now open to fans, represents the beginning of a new era for OSU athletics.

Gameday
Cowboy football isn’t just a game. It’s an event. This season the football experience has spilled out onto the concourse. Join other cowboy fans in the Hall of Fame Block Party on the north side of the stadium for carnival concessions, Nike tent, inflatable games, and GoVision. John Holcomb and Dave Hunziker will broadcast the Cowboy pre-game show live across from the US Cellular Autograph Tent. In addition, the south side of Boone Pickens Stadium will feature a tent city full of vendors offering “made in Oklahoma” merchandise.

The Western-themed Express Personnel Club Level at Boone Pickens Stadium offers a pre-game buffet (click here for this week’s menu options), wider seats with increased leg room and cupholders, and a climate-controlled indoor lounge with flat-screen TVs. The Club Level is home to some of our most dedicated supporters of OSU Athletics and is a tremendous way to enjoy Cowboy Football in an upscale atmosphere.

There will be no access to Knoblock Street between Hall of Fame Avenue & McElroy Street on game days. There will be NO grilling, cooking or charcoaling allowed in or on top of the Silver Star parking garage due to fire and safety regulations, please plan accordingly.

General Parking

The Shuttle will service approximately every 15 minutes before the game starting three hours prior to kickoff and will service every 30 minutes after the game depending on traffic.

Cowboy fans can now PARK FREE IN DOWNTOWN STILLWATER and enjoy gameday shopping and dining before catching a courtesy shuttle to Boone Pickens Stadium. to download a map of available free parking lot locations downtown. Shuttle service begins 3 hours prior to kickoff and continues throughout post-game, with pick-up/drop-off approx. every 15 minutes.

Traffic Flow
I-35 Northbound traffic please consider taking OK-33 east to 177 north into Stillwater. This will greatly alleviate some traffic issues in Stillwater.

How Orange Are You?
Cowboy athletes feed off the noise and emotion OSU fans provide - that's why it's called "home field advantage." The Cowboys need your support as they knock off the league's perennial powers and make a run at a bowl game. Arrive early, wear orange, make some noise!

Live Sports Radio
The radio will work at all the home and away games of your Home Team. Each season a new radio will be available as the FCC-licensed frequencies that are used for the broadcast will change depending upon the team’s schedule. The LSR will continue to work as an FM scan radio on an ongoing basis; however, the “event” radio mode will only work for the current season.
