Best time to arrive is 1 hour after civil dawn: most of the "I've gotta get
out first thing in the morning" folks have departed, but the mid-day rush
hasn't started. Worst time to arrive is immediately after the airshow
(~17:00).  Late evening is an ok time to arrive, provided you allow 30
minutes of daylight after landing in order to taxi to your parking space.
No aircraft movement permitted after dusk or during the airshow.

Here is another idea. Land at an airport nearby and monitor the OSH
tower traffic on the hand held. When things die down take off and flyin.

If you're willing to "wait" at a nearby airport, Fond du Lac is a good choice.
There's food nearby (airport is directly adjacent a major highway, and across the
highway is a large retail area) so you can get a bite to eat, etc.  I believe
that some folks (non-campers) tie down at Fond du Lac and then get a shuttle to
wherever they're staying.
