And now there’s the announcement of very limited public parking in grass lots. Wonder why it took until this afternoon to decide the moisture content of those areas. Sigh.

How do the golf cart shuttles work in the tailgate lots? I haven't used them yet this season, but have someone in our party that will need them to get around the lots.

Pay close attention to the parking map. Very limited pickup points. If I were you, I would try to get one of the parking people with a radio to get a supervisor to help arrange a ride.

The golf cart shuttles do not come to the parking lots. They are inside the stadium only. The map is for the tractor pulled shuttle stops

I’ve been updated- see message below

The stars used to be where the tractors would stop, but they do not have the tractors any longer. I don't know exactly why, but large golf carts have replaced them for external transportation around Jack Trice.

Can you expand on this? I was searching the web for info on the grass lots and missed any announcements.

Upon getting to Ames today, I understand the lack of parking in a lot of the grass lots. There are quite a few standing water spots in the low lying public lots. Ground is pretty saturated so nothing soaking in or running off.

The ditches between the paved donor lots even have standing water. At least no rain forecasted for the game.
