OT - Orange Bowl Parking/Tailgating
SIAP, but my search didn't turn up anything. I snagged some tickets with friends and family for the Orange Bowl. Wondering if anyone has any insight regarding where to park or tailgate for the game. I'm still figuring out whether I'll have time to tailgate, so any information on general parking and tailgating would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

turns while others sleep you can make it in less than a day.
You could get to Billings, Montana faster or just as fast depending on where in Michigan you're leaving from.

That's where a large group of Michigan fans will be.

If you haven't been to the stadium before, it's sort of in the middle of a residential neighborhood so there aren't a ton of options outside the stadium for parking/walking. I would not advise parking nearby and walking up. You're a bit stuck in the lots for tailgating options.
I haven't been there in about 3 years but Miami Gardens isn't a huge "destination" other than the stadium and the casino, which is just north and does have horse racing.

You must go to Versailles Restaurant...most famous Cuban place in Miami. I also really like Villa Habana on Coral Way.
Yardbird on Miami Beach is one of the best Southern restaurants I've ever been to, as well.

If you are in Miami, the classic places are Cafe Versailles (pronounced Ver-sigh-ez in Spanglish) or La Carreta on Eight Street (Calle Ocho) in Little Havana. There are tons of hole-in-the-wall cuban places around though. In South Beach, try Puerto Sagua on Collins and 6th or David's Cafecito on Alton Road.

Do yourself a favor and make the trek down to Coconut Grove and eat at Jaguar. Some of the best ceviche in the city and if you're not into that, the rest of the menu is solid LatAm type fare.

As mentioned your best bet is to just park in one of the stadium lots. There's nothing there similar to the golfcourse tailgating in Ann Arbor or the Grove at Ole Miss or anything like that. Pretty basic parking lot tailgating. Lot #2 (one of the orange lots) is probably the easiest in/out lot off the turnpike.
