Touchdown! Navigating the Journey to Alumni Stadium: A Fan's Guide
Alright, die-hard Eagles fans, listen up! It's game day, and you're itching to witness some BC brilliance under the Friday night lights (or maybe slightly less dramatic afternoon sun). But before you throw on your maroon and gold and spike your imaginary touchdown pass, there's the small matter of getting to Alumni Stadium. Fear not, fellow fanatic, for this guide will illuminate your path to the promised land (that promised land being a stadium packed with cheering Eagles fans, of course).
Gearing Up for Glory: Public Transportation
Forget the chariot, ditch the DeLorean – for most of us, the trusty MBTA, or "T" as the cool kids call it, is our valiant steed. Here's the lowdown:
- The Green Machine: Your green chariot awaits! Hop on the B, C, or D Green Line train and prepare for a scenic (or napping, no judgement) ride to victory. Just be prepared for a bit of a walk depending on which station you disembark at.
- Insider Tip: For those arriving by train, the Riverside Station (exit 38 off I-95) offers a park-and-ride option, so you can ditch the four-wheeled beast and join the T party.
QuickTip: Reading carefully once is better than rushing twice.

Parking Like a Champion (If You Must)
For those who prefer the comfort (and potential stress of finding a spot) of their own car, fret not! BC offers paid parking on campus garages. But be warned, these spots fill up faster than a free pizza giveaway on campus.
Pro-Tip: Arrive early to snag a coveted spot. Remember, patience is a virtue, especially on game day.
QuickTip: Pause at transitions — they signal new ideas.
Shuttles: Your Knight in Shining Armor (Well, Bus)
Fear not, weary warriors! If the parking gods haven't smiled upon you and the T isn't your jam, there's a free shuttle running from a satellite lot in Needham. Just like Cinderella's carriage, however, this shuttle disappears at a certain time (usually after the game), so make sure you catch your last ride back.
Reminder: Focus on key sentences in each paragraph.
FAQs for the Fanatic:
