Sounds like some of the lots will be closed. That will be a nightmare.

Iowa State is also issuing an advisory for limited parking in some grass lots due to heavy rainfall in Central Iowa over the past week. The muddy conditions will make some public (grass) parking areas near Jack Trice Stadium unavailable for Saturday’s football game vs. UNI.

I wouldn't expect ENTIRE lots to be closed. Perhaps some of the lower areas of the grass lots might be susceptible, but I wouldn't think any major repercussions would be felt.

I doubt the close any lots. nothing was flooded and we've had a couple of drying days along with tomorrow. With the wind today it really started drying things out. I was hoping they would open the lots earlier.

Why does that irk you? It's private property. They don't have to have gameday parking. Even if it did, it wouldn't even put a dent into fixing parking issues.

Where did you get this from? I don't see anything on cyclones.com. I can't believe there will be any issues given how hot and windy it has been last few days.

There was something posted a few days ago. I think it was more of a CYA type of thing. Lots seemed fine when I looked this evening.

There is an article on the Official web site discussing parking and tailgating. Was dated 8/3 and has not been updated this morning.
