Public Grass Lots Parking Permits Can Be Purchased Before Day of Game

[BigJCy]

AMES, Iowa - Single-game parking permits for the public grass lots (G2/G3/G4/G5/G8/G9) will be available for presale at 10 a.m. on the Wednesday before home games (pending forecasted weather) at cyclones.com.

• These passes will be sold online only. Sales will cease at noon on Friday OR when passes sell out. Pre-sold parking passes for the public parking lots will be assured entry in one of the public parking lots, all will be first-come, first-served and you will be able to choose which lot to park in upon arrival. Parking purchased on site on game day will be subject to availability.
• Public single game parking is $20/car. Passes purchased during presale will be mobile passes that can be scanned upon entry in the parking lots and valid only in G2/G3/G4/G5/G8/G9.
• RV parking is not available for presale nor will a pre-purchased car permit be honored for an RV, bus or other large vehicle.
• Public parking opens six hours before kickoff on game day.

RVs may park in Lot 93 (VetMed) beginning at 5:30 p.m. the day before home games. Sales cease at midnight, and the lot will re-open six hours before kickoff on game day. On game day, public parking for RVs is available in any public parking lot. All RV parking is considered dry camping. We do not offer electrical service, water or sanitary hookups. Your RV must be moved out of the lot by 12 p.m. the day after the game.

Handicapped parking is available in Lot S1 on a first-come, first-served basis on game day only (no pre-sales) with a state issued handicapped parking pass. In addition, parking in that lot is $20 for a car, or a Cyclone Club parking pass may be presented to waive the parking fee. No RVs will be permitted in Lot S1.

Visa, MasterCard and Discover are accepted as forms of payment for both presale and game day parking.

Is the lot on the northwest side of Ioway Creek on South 4th a university owned lot?

The weather forecast looks great for next weekend, partly cloudy, highs in the mid-70s, perfect condition to turn Purple Hoks black and blue.

Right next to Squaw Creek.

Yep, wouldn't be surprised at all by that.

Just went and tried to get a UNI parking permit and yep got the "Oops! We are experiencing technical difficulties" message.

Got in at 9:58 and purchased a pass with no issues.

I just got mine

Yep, took me a couple times of getting the error message but eventually got mine bought as well.

I totally understand why they don't but I'd really like it if they pre-sold the ADA lot. Just one less hassle getting in there.

 

[cstrunk]

I just bought mine for UNI. I thought the intent of this was going to allow us to choose the specific lot to have guaranteed access (like G3), but it's just for all public lots. I'm not sure what the advantage really is for pre-purchasing unless you aren't planning on arrive until a couple hours before kickoff or later...

Also another way for Ticketmaster to charge a $3 service fee...

Which would be no different if you just pulled up and paid with a $20 bill. This is just assuring you that you can get in somewhere. But if you are arriving 6-7 hours before kickoff... you're going to get in... somewhere.

The only advantage I can see is if you wanted to show up 2 hours before kickoff instead.

My understanding is that ISU is hoping this will speed up the filling of the lots when they open by not having to deal with cash transactions as cars are entering.

Unless you show up too late. They always have morons that think they need 10’ beside their vehicle.

Any presales for the grass around Hilton and Scheman?

those are not lots anylonger, not sure why they aren't selling the grass area next to hilton but they're not.

It also assures $in the bank regardless of whether a purchaser actually uses it. Any way to resell, at higher price?

I know they used to allow cars to park on the East side of Beach years ago. $20 and they came by in a golf cart and collected the money and gave you at ticket. Pretty easy.
