Just got an email stating portions of G7 will be closed, G7 Passholders will be moved to Vet Med once G7 lot is full...……...Will it ever end? Paved lots can't come soon enough.

Jamie's new east parking project needs to get going. Get that new bridge built, and the 3500 paved parking spots ready for next year.

Are there other places for non-donor cars to park & tailgate with a small grill and adult beverages? Or is it frowned upon everywhere except the grass and paved Jack Trice lots? I'm fine walking a bit to the stadium (within reason of course).

OK...we already had a thread on grass lots specific to this game and at least one person assured us yesterday it wouldn't be an issue.

Does this mean we can't go by that instead?

So what public options are there for rv parking? Is the haunted forest lot open?

That is a project that almost pays for itself. The AD is losing $20 / car for every single one that can't park in the grass lots every game. Ouch.

I've been parking north of Lincoln Way in either the rec center lot, or by the power plant.
I've seen people tailgating in those lots.

It's about a 10-15 minute walk to the stadium, so not bad.

Is it too late to bring up "How nice paving over the intermural fields east of the stadium, would have been for parking" or is that in poor taste?

Does anybody here use Cyride? Wife and I are going to the game but won't get there until 1ish so I was thinking of parking out by Staples and riding in. Any other ideas on parking that close to game time?
