My friend and I are going to our first Nebraska game this weekend. I'm flying in from Albuquerque and he's flying in from Boston. NU vs. KSU on Sat and then the Chiefs vs. Broncos on Sunday. It's our first of hopefully many "football weekends" in the years to come. My question is about the parking for the game. We obviously want to take in the tailgate scene as much as we can, but after looking at maps etc. online I'm not sure what parking options we have. Are all university lots restricted for donors/season ticket holders? What would be the best lot to park in where we can have a good time and enjoy a few beers? Also, what time do you suggest we get there for the 11:30am kickoff? Thanks!
