Having issues finding a reasonably priced parking pass for Arizona, so where can one tailgate on a first come first serve basis within a reasonable walking distance?

Don't know the name but there is a private parking spot east of Jack Trice on S 4th Street right next to Stuart Smith Park. $60 is the parking rate
First game was $50, Iowa game was $60. I think it's $50 for the rest of the year. They usually increase it for the Iowa and UNI games.
I don’t remember the grass lots selling out this fast in prior years. Did they lower the amount of passes being sold or are people just buying that more quickly this year?
I’ve heard that a broker out east somehow bought the rest up along with the remaining JCC passes. Something like $40,000 worth.
This lot was discussed in another thread, but you turn from University onto S, 4th, go across the bridge and then turn left into the lot. Actually it might be better to come from the east, going behind Hy-Vee and then you can turn to the right to enter the lot. $50 parking is the best I think you can get that close to the stadium.
The public grass lots available on Cyclones.com, everyone is saying those get bought out almost instantly by scalpers. Then you can buy parking for one game at $274.50 or some such nonsense. Too bad the University doesn't care to actually sell to their customers. I think I'll write a sternly-worded letter......
Would be nice if the athletic department would just offer season ticket holders who do not buy a donor parking pass an option to purchase GA parking passes before they go on sale to the public. That would probably help some of the problem with the brokers as I know a lot of people I tailgate with in the grass lots that have season tickets and we all buy our parking the minute they go on sale just so we don't have to worry about it later. May not entirely sold the problem with the brokers buy at least those of us with season tickets have the option to buy the passes before the general public does.
Could they do something where your account has to have purchased tickets for a game, either season tickets or individual game tickets for that game, to be eligible to buy a grass public lot pass? Or would that be a logistical nightmare?
They were mostly sold out last year also, scalpers have figure out there is money at ISU for parking, and it's only going to get worse if the team continues to win. The days of showing up an hour before the game and rolling into your parking spot or not having parking and finding something on game day are going away. It's one of those bad along with the good things.
They do. At this point isn't it about the same price for whatever the lowest Cyclone Club membership is plus parking compared to buying individual games?
I would assume stub hub/ Ticketmaster/seatgeeek etc.
The JCC tickets would be an easy flip/ profit.
Parking a little riskier because usually those November games are sometimes difficult to even give away.
Stub hub you can. Iowa game was around $125-150 a hillside so he definitely made some coin.
Don’t be shocked to see price increases there next year or somehow making JCC non transferable
I hope they do make them non transferable. I’ve been buying JCC for years for my kids, I’ll be super pissed if that goes up. It says child on the ticket but those guys running the gates never give two sh*ts.
Only other idea I could think of is, they give paper tickets for the JCC or maybe wristbands/ bracelets color coded for each game. But I’m sure something will change eventually.
