Colts MNF Game - Pregame/Stadium Advice for Out-of-Towner

[VandyLaw]

It's probably a bit early to ask this, but I'm excited. My brother and I have good tickets to the Colts MNF game. It will be the first Dolphins game I have attended in a very long time. Our tickets include parking in Orange section. Any advice on what time we should arrive, tailgating, if there is a good local spot where Dolfans congregate pregame? Any tips at all for an out-of-towner who has not attended a Dolphins game in over a decade would be greatly appreciated.

On a related note, over/under on the number of times Peyton Manning is sacked? Given the different pressures the Dolphins will bring, the return of Jason Taylor, and Manning's historic difficulties against the 3-4, I expect to see him devoured three times, resulting in 1 turnover (FF by Porter, scooped up and taken to the house by JT).

The area around Dolphin Stadium isn't the best so most people just tailgate for a long time. I don't recall when the gates open for a MNF game, perhaps someone else does.

Not much to do around the stadium bro- when I go down, I usually just tailgate. I'm going to the Indy game too- my cousin and I will probably get there about 5:00. That gives you 3 1/2 solid hours to get your drink on.
