Memorial Stadium: West Club Area (Indoor/Outdoor) Questions

[Seaofred92]

I am coming to the game against Wisconsin with my wife and in-laws (in-laws have never been to a NU game before) in late November and for multiple reasons we will be looking to sit together in one of the club areas. I am less familiar with the West Club areas than the East as I used to sit in East Club 400 section due to it being on the NU sideline. A few questions for those who have sat in West Club area before or would know:

- Are 300’s completely indoors behind glass the entire time, or do they open up the glass (guessing they probably wouldn’t given it will be in late November)?

- Does West 200 section still have indoor access for concessions, bathrooms, etc similar to East Club 400s section?

- How do we get to either the Indoor or Outdoor club area on the West side? Are there escalators/elevators similar to East stadium?

- Concession and Restroom options- are these shared between the Indoor/Outdoor club seats or are there separate areas for both the 200 and 300 sections?

- Any issues with the sun being in your eyes for later games? Guessing since the volleyball game is at 8pm that night we will either be at 11am or 230pm local kickoff

Any other helpful tidbits to know would be great.. appreciate any info the board can provide.

Dad used to club level tickets in the west. Been a while so I'll try to remember and hopefully not much has changed since its been about 15 years.

To get up there, you enter by the Champions Club. There are some glass doors in the middle of the stadium between the two staircases at street level. There is a long string of escalators that go up there and it runs along the old stadium that you can reach out and touch. Super cool from when I was a kid. There are also elevators that you can take up. There were 2 large elevators that would take people up.

Concessions are shared between indoor and outdoor seats. There are two main areas for concessions. One to the north and one to the south. Some individual vendors set up in the large opening in the middle (one person selling drinks, another hot dogs, another pizza).

From what I recall, the 200s are outdoor and the 300s are indoor behind glass. Don't believe they have the ability to open the glass for 300s unless that has changed. In the suites they have the ability to open the glass.

From what I remember sun wasn't a huge issue. But again, its been at least 15 years since my dad had those tickets.
