Fall Saturdays in Ohio mean Ohio State football. If you're lucky enough to get tickets to the games, there's no better place to cheer on the team than at Ohio Stadium in Columbus. However, the two-hour drive from Cleveland to Columbus can be tiring, especially after a day of reveling. If you choose to spend the night, there are several hotels within a short distance of the stadium. Just remember to plan ahead; rooms fill up fast for game days.
