Belfry will be the Home team on the scoreboard and will wear their red jerseys. Belfry fans will sit on the west side of Papa Johns, which is Louisville's home side.

No artificial noisemakers allowed. Signs and flags are permitted as long as they are attached with easily removed strings or tape that wil not leave a sticky residue and do not block the view of fans or cover up stadium signage up to and including
corporate logos and trademarks.

A few things to consider:

-There is a Country Inn and Suites literally right next to the stadium. There is also a number of hotels right next to Kentucky Kingdom. The Executive Inn and Exectuive West are always a popular spot as well and within about 5 minutes of the stadium.

- For those looking to make a full day and/or weekend out of Louisville I strongly suggest going to the Muhhamad Ali Museum and Louisville Slugger Museum in downtown. They are within walking distance of each other. I am not a big museum type of person, but I really enjoyed these two palces.

- Those looking for a bite to eat on their way to the game: After you pass I-265 (Gene Snyder Freeway) the first exit will be Blankenbaker Parkway, right off the exit is a Cracker Barrell. About 2 miles past the Blankenbaker Exit you will come to the next exit which is Hurstbourne Parkway, Hurstbourne has pretty much any restaraunt you can think of on it. If you turn right off the exit there is an Olive Garden, Skyline Chilli, Perkins, and plenty of hotels really close by, further down the road is a P.F. Chang's. If you turn left onto Hurstbourne you will find a Shoney's, El Toro Mexican restaraunt, tons of fast food places, Buffalo Wild Wings, Tumbleweed Steakhosue, Moe's Southwest Grill, Picadilly Cafeteria, a Mongolian Bar-B-Q, etc....

- Near the stadium there are scattered fast food restaraunts as well as a Beef O' Brady's and few random restaraunts directly across from the parking lot facing I-65.

- Those spending the night and needing to do Christmas Shopping I strongly suggest staying in one of the hotels off of Hurstbourne (Marriott, Clarion Inn, Red Roof Inn, Holiday Inn). There are plenty of places to shop off of Hurstbourne, but you also will be pretty close to Mall St. Matthew's and Oxmoor Center, the two best malls in Louisville. For those going to the St. Matthew's area there is also my favorite restaraunt in the world, The Cheescake Factory, located directly next to Oxmoor Center.

-If anyone gets lost near downtown or Papa John's remember this rule of thumb, "as the street numbers increase, the neighborhood gets worse".
