Lake Express Ferry Gets Behind Bucky with UW Football Roadtrip Discount

According to a press release from Lake Express:

The undefeated University of Wisconsin football team faces its toughest test of the season on Saturday night when it travels to East Lansing, MI. to face Michigan State. Lake Express wants to help Badger fans get there easily and affordably by offering a 20 percent discount on all passenger fares Friday through Monday. 

Travelers who want to follow the Badgers on the road can avoid busy weekend traffic in the Chicago-area by making the 2.5-hour trip across Lake Michigan from Milwaukee to Muskegon, MI., which is about an hour-and-a-half drive from East Lansing.

As the ferry continues service through the end of October, the popular “Kids Ride Free” deal remains available, allowing kids under the age of 17 to ride the ferry at no charge when accompanied by an adult. Additionally, motorcycles ride for free in October, providing a total savings of $61 per one-way trip and $122 roundtrip.

Lake Express tickets can be purchased using the ferry’s online reservation system here, or by calling 866-914-1010.
