There is a slight downhill grade from the parking lot to the ticket booth but nothing difficult. The visitor stands are beyond the ticket booth to the right and nearest to the parking lot. The whole way is nice fresh asphalt and concrete. One of the easier stadiums to get into and out of I've ever been to. I read a comment on social.media that Christianburg HS had some construction project going on & parking might be an issue. Any truth to that or is it like most things on social media a bunch of BS?

That may have changed now but it wasn’t in mid September. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any truth to that or is it like most things on social media a bunch of BS? We had to go there in October for a little league game. They had some concrete barriers up in certain spots but it really didn’t cause any parking issues. Things could have changed though since then.

The parking lot is big, shouldn't be a problem at all. here's a link to a pictures of the stadium and parking lot. Just scroll down on mobile device, you may have to click on something on a laptop, not sure. Only part of thr parking is shown, there is plenty more just a tad further back. https://www.landtekgroup.com/portfolio-item/christiansburg-high-school/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VT W1N 25 Report Share Posted November 28, 2023 Saw this post on the Radford Facebook page regarding parking: There is a portion of the main lot that is blocked off. However, there are some makeshift lots further down and also around the side and back of the school, so there should be sufficient parking, but some may have a longer walk. Me again: I actually live near Christiansburg and go through there all the time. Unfortunately I'm out of town for work starting tomorrow or I'd ride through there and get a first-hand report.

I’m sure the coaches & players aren’t looking ahead but apparently some fans are 😂😂. No one will beat the us (Riverheads fan) . Radford fan, Riverheads don’t have a chance against us. Graham fan (Me) I hope Graham goes in Saturday & plays their best game of the season. I think if we will do that we have a good chance to win against Radford. I in no way am saying we beat anyone. I never count my chickens (wins) before they hatch. 😂 I hope you’re right though! 🤞 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigWinners 1,643 Report Share Posted November 29, 2023 Anyone know the weather forecast? That could be the x-factor. If it’s cold as shit with rain flyin around, Graham will win and make it seem easy. Trying to catch that football when it’s hard as concrete in 20* weather while it’s slick? Hard pass.

Boooooo that’s way too nice weather for December in SWVA. The Park was fantastic on Saturday, the absolute best weather for football I’ve ever seen but it was a tick warm. 60* is just too damn warm, y’all NRV boys pulling out all the stops to advance. Well played lol. sixcat 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m almost always a Region D guy, I’ve rooted for Graham to win the last couple years and always like to see titles come back to 2D, but I dunno I don’t want them to become this unbeatable juggernaut. I want the West to win regardless, I’ll put it that way. Whoever wins the West gets my full support in Salem. Either team v Riverheads would be so much fun, total style contrast v Radford or Clemens v CCC showdown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would like a little bit of redemption against them for that win they got over Richlands on 2010. (I know, been a long time, but at my age, 13 years seems like yesterday).

I don’t really care that much about who wins the East, I just thought Riverheads would lead to the more interesting style matchups. I think Poquoson would likely be a tad easier than Riverheads but could be wrong. Real Sasquatch 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tru Blue72 88 Report Share Posted November 30, 2023 Being a Richlands fan, I'm trying my best to say Go Gmen. I'm practicing but everytimw I say it somehow leaves a raunchy taste in my mouth. Something I'll never get use to, but GO GMEN. I want to see a game between Graham and Riverheads in the championship. True, different styles, both tough as nails with good coaching staffs, but should be a great game. Oh, BTW, I'll keep that vile taste in my mouth for that game and repeat GO GMEN, GO GMEN, GO GMEN!!! Yuk, Yuk Yuk, spit, spit. LOL Gridiron60, stu_bean, Graham32 and 1 other 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As soon as the rain slacked up Radford started pulling away Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
