You can add “water taxi” to the growing list of options for getting to McLane Stadium.

Outdoor Waco is planning to buy two pontoon boats to ferry fans from downtown to the riverfront stadium on game day.

The downtown adventure outfitter has a handshake deal with the Waco Hilton to carry its guests to the stadium and may offer rides to the public as well, Outdoor Waco general manager Trinity Robb said.

He said the business at 215 S. University Parks Drive also will offer excursions up and down the Brazos River throughout the year, including game days.

“The city and Baylor are talking about a game-day weekend, and we want to enhance that with fun things to do,” Robb said.

He said he hopes to have the water taxi ready to give rides up and down the river even before the first game-day weekend of Aug. 31.

But that depends on the city of Waco’s green light.
