  19. Yes, it will be near impossible to get a hotel in College Station for any Penn State games. We should look into a hotel as far out as we can (a year, year and half in advance) to see if we could reserve. I think that is as far in advance as you can get. Very difficult due to it's in rural area. You need to consider airports. Newark, Philadelphia, and Harrisburg airports are your best bets. Harrisburg is the closest city with an international airport and a population of around 60,000. It takes around 1hour and minutes, which is 88 miles from Beaver Stadium. forgot to mention, Pittsburg is about 137 miles, 2 hours and 21 minutes which is the other option as you mentioned which you can fly into. A shorter distance than Philadelphia and NJ. Philadelphia is over 3 hours from the stadium. Lancaster does have an airport and lots of hotels and is 1 hour and 59 minutes away. Again, I am 3 hours away. If you are thinking flying in to NJ, Newark Airport would be the one. There are closer towns like Lewiston (35 minutes away, 31 miles), but not sure what hotels, if vacancies are available. You almost want a hotel as close as possible due to how late the game might end and especially if anyone wanting to get together to go out somewhere. Just some other thoughts. There are a lot small towns all around College Station, we all could possibly get a hotel.
