Party Before the Game

This was a huge "pay to get in" party that was going on before the game. There were a lot of these all over Phoenix throughout the weekend. We went to a huge OSU block party on Sunday afternoon in Scottsdale and there was a pep rally downtown at Chase Field (where the Diamondbacks play). There were way more OSU fans here than Florida fans too, which made it great for all the pregame parties. Anyway, these pictures are from the entrance to the outdoor mall called Westgate. This mall is still being built so the stores are not even in it yet. But the main structures are all there and some restaurants. This whole area is being built up and the hockey arena and football stadium are both right next to it. So everything is all walking distance. These pictures show where all the fans were partying, the live bands were, etc. They even had a Varsity Club West for those that know of the Ohio State Varsity Club in Columbus.
