2022 rules were shared above, mostly the same for 2023.
Glass bottle rule was in effect, not really enforced.
Fire rule was not enforced, as long as it was in a solo stove or similar above ground and not burning the grass or anything.
Hard liquor rule was not enforced, legal drinking age was.
Now for the unwritten rules
Have a fun time, help everyone out.
Clean up after yourself
it is acceptable to leave cans with 5 cent deposit next to the dumpster, but put trash in the dumpster
Other than that the basic etiquette you would have at a campground

Short answer is yes. Have to be at Captains level to have the ability to purchase the pass. According to the ticket office, the passes are sold out (first year for this).
Your best bet to get a parking pass for a game will be to purchase them on the secondary market. If you look on here, you will see that demand is pretty solid (definitely more buyers than sellers and those that are selling passes don’t last long). With the lot being sold out, that demand should stay solid for the foreseeable future.
I wonder was caused the extra demand this year to sell out the RV lot. Last year there was a lot of unsold passes. My best guess is people bought them up to resale.
I think there was a bit of "wait and see" out of a lot of people not willing to pony up the extra cash over what was paid in the D lots. Success drives demand.
