There is no gentler way to open your Ducks travel season than a Friday-night home game with a bus seat waiting for you. When Oregon hosts the Portland State Vikings under the Autzen lights on September 18, QuackTrips rolls out of Portland fully loaded so you never touch a steering wheel, a gas pump, or a parking lot. And because this is the most affordable trip on our 2026 calendar, it is the easiest one to say yes to.
A round-trip built for a Friday night
Every seat is round-trip. We collect you in Portland, cruise south down I-5, drop you steps from the stadium gates, and carry you back home the same night. No shuttle transfers, no second vehicle to track down after the final whistle — one coach, one crew, door to Duck territory and back.
Two Portland-area pickup routes
Choose whichever line sits closest to your front door:
- The Wing — Westside & Downtown, serving riders coming straight from the office or the west suburbs.
- The Bill — Southside & Eastside, catching the east-of-the-river and southern-metro crowd.
Pick your route at checkout and you will get the exact stop and boarding time by email.

What rides with you
The base seat is a premium motorcoach experience, not a cattle-car shuttle. Every ticket includes:
- Reserved seat on a premium motorcoach with an onboard restroom
- Bottled water plus an artisanal snack box for the road
- Overhead TVs and onboard entertainment to set the mood
- A dedicated game-day staff member riding along to keep things smooth
- Optional sandwich box add-on if you want a heartier bite before kickoff
Timing that leans into the evening
A 7:30 kickoff is made for this trip. Instead of burning a whole Saturday, you finish the work week and roll straight into the tailgate. We aim to reach Eugene about 90 minutes before kickoff, giving you time to soak up the pregame buzz, and we pull out roughly 30 minutes after the final whistle. Yes, it is a late return — but you will be dozing in a reclined seat while someone else navigates the dark I-5 miles home.
Why the bus beats driving to Eugene
Driving I-5 to a night game means two tired hours down, a scramble for overpriced parking near Autzen, and the same two hours back in the dark after a long day. On the bus, the commute becomes part of the fun: no white-knuckle merging, no designated-driver debate, no walking a half-mile from some gravel lot. You arrive relaxed and you leave without a worry about the drive.
