Was just in town last week and can't believe how much the campus has changed, but commuter parking is an after thought. It's only on the perimeter now. 1 Quote Link to comment

So just change that lot over to grass and preserve some of it for the tailgating and the game day atmosphere. Quote Link to comment
Loebarth Posted August 3 Report Share Posted August 3 why not set it up for vendor tailgating.. Let say 6-10 vendors set up assigned area's with one being a beer garden and then put out canopy tents for shading. Lastly, allow 6-10 random tailgate spots for the public to bring in their grills/cookers to add to the atmosphere. In the Nov games, put up a several Standing LP heaters to warm the tailgater's. The vendor spots are sold yearly while the public (call them grilling spots) ones are free but only available once per year per family. Draw the public spots randomly and send the spot schedules out accordingly. Vendor and Public spots are setup Friday night to eliminate on campus traffic issues. Quote Link to comment

Because those are very expensive tailgate spots that the AD can sell to boosters. 2 Quote Link to comment
