OT: 3 Things That Make Visiting Your School For A Road Trip Special
Ok this I hope becomes a fun topic...name three activities, places to visit, food to eat, etc...that a fellow ACC fan needs to do on a road trip to your school.
Pictures, links, etc... are key.
Multiple fans of the same school should try to add 3 other different things.
Okay I'll start:
Dinosaur BarbequeSyracuse has great food (Italian) but the most famous Restaurant in Syracuse is a BBQ joint. Dinosaur BBQ has been serving great BBQ for 25 years at the original location.
Destiny
Destiny is great for a rainy day as it has opened up a new entertainment area. It is starting to hit critical mass as more and more new places open up weekly. It is now one of the biggest Mall/Entertainment complexes in the country. In fact it might be the perfect solution for you (the guy) to drop your wife and kids off at if you want to do the third thing below.
The two owners of the Mall run through Destiny last summer as it was being finished
Salmon River and Nearby Lake Ontario
That third thing is world class fishing just 30-45 mins north of Syracuse. Salmon, Lake Trout and Steelhead are all options for you. This isn't the Great Lakes you read about 30 years ago...Lake Ontario and the Salmon River are clean bodies of water and teeming with large fish. Upstate NY is blessed with great bodies of water for fishing (all this is within 90 minutes): Finger Lakes, Oneida Lake, Lake Ontario, Thousand Islands, Oswego River, Salmon River...The Fall is a great time to visit as Salmon, Steelhead and Muskies are all within 90 minutes.
