Ohio State/Michigan Fans Converge on the HideAway Country Inn for Weekend Tailgating

Bucyrus, OH (PRWEB) November 15, 2006 -- On Saturday, November 18th at 3:30 p.m., fans who can't get a ticket to watch the Ohio State Buckeyes play the University of Michigan Wolverines in Columbus are invited to make a weekend out of it and gather just a short drive north of Ohio Stadium at the HideAway Country Inn in Bucyrus to watch the game in style.

For innkeeper Debbie Miller, this football party requires many extras. "Of course we've got a big screen TV and a tailgating party going on in our dining room," says Miller, who plans to stock the room with tailgating goodies and overstuffed recliner chairs. "Fans who prefer to watch in their guestrooms will get a basket of snacks, scarlet and grey balloons and Nerf footballs to throw at the TV when they don't like a call."

The HideAway Country Inn's kitchen team has planned a powerhouse lineup for dinner after the game. Wolverine soup made with Michigan blueberries kicks off the meal, followed by entrees including Michi-"gander" -- a parmesan roast duck breast served over sun-dried cherry demi-glaze -- and special features such as locally-grown, thick-cut gridiron grilled pork chops or a powerhouse T-bone steak, said to be a Brutus specialty. For dessert, it's a Buckeye cream puff filled with peanut butter cream and dipped in chocolate sauce.

Overnight guests are encouraged to book the entire weekend, and can choose to stay in one of the HideAway's 12 guestrooms, taking advantage of a special rate of $565 - $675 for a two-night stay, which is inclusive of the cost of the party, accommodations, dinner for two and a National Championship Breakfast served on Sunday morning. A late-checkout time of 1:00 symbolizes Ohio State maintaining a #1 ranking all season. Guests opting to attend the party without an overnight stay will receive admission to the party, plenty of snacks during the game and the opportunity to take advantage of dinner at the HideAway Inn for $35 per person.

Located strategically between the city of Columbus, Ohio, and Ann Arbor, Mich., Miller can never be sure how many of her guests will arrive wearing scarlet and how many might sport blue, but all are welcome. Even though the team rivalry has been rated the number-one such rivalry in college football, Miller reports that fans who attend her party are, "congenial and well-behaved."

Football fans are encouraged to make reservations early for this popular party and overnight stay by calling 419/562-3013 or 800/570-8233.
