Ok, here's a good tip for those late comers. I sometimes park at The Penn Stater, look it up, and take their shuttle over to the game. Tickets are $10 per person for round-trip but the $10 is also a voucher which can be used for food and drink at the bar (Legends) or the restaurant. The bar will be serving until midnight and open until 1:30 so you should be able to get a bite and drink or two before heading off. Parking is free. The shuttle goes through the pastures and drops off/picks up just off the Northeast corner of the stadium. I have waited as much as a half hour for a bus after the game but that's nothing compared to sitting in the parking lots. Could be a good option for you.
