I'd be unlikely to ever go to a Pac-12 championship game that did not involve Stanford even though I live about 8 miles from Levi's Stadium..
My selfish concerns as a season ticket holder with a neutral site game are will I get tickets and will they be comparable to my regular season tickets. I'd also like good tailgating but given the Friday night time slot that's not as important as my arrival for kick-off won't allow much time for quality tailgating.
