Fond memories of dorm life? Mizzou to rent empty rooms for football games

COLUMBIA, Mo. • Starting this fall, families and fans can rent rooms in University of Missouri-Columbia residence halls for football games and other campus events.

The initiative is among those introduced Thursday by Mizzou leaders to the Board of Curators at their Columbia meeting as a means to offset the financial stress of declining freshman enrollment.

A website went live Wednesday night that allows people to book a two-room, four-bed suite for $120 per night. There's an added cost for parking, according to the website.

Renting rooms for football games in particular has been discussed for months.
