Campus Parking Patrol is a plague on our house

 Well that was nice of them, was Uncle Mike in the Admin cuz he is known as a nice guy.  :)
That was well before Uncle Mike.  Jerry Pettibone was our coach and he was an assistant at UNL from '79-'81.  He played at OU and coached there, too.  I played golf with him years after he retired and we talked about the old Big 8 days, Nebraska and OU games, etc.  Total blast talking with him.  He was a member at my club and we played together often.  

 
I used to park in visitor parking a lot because my car (my dad's car) was not registered with the school I went to.  They started giving me tickets and I would have to go down there and say "look you guys keep giving my parents tickets when they come to visit".  They would look at me sideways and throw it out.  Campus security were tools.

I knew Pettibone had been here, but did not realize he was at Oregon State later. I bet those were some fun conversations.

 
FYI... It's a commuter lot for students who live off campus, but you do have to have a pass to park there. Anybody who's not a freshman knows how this works, and knows your taking your wallet into your own hands when you park somewhere you're not supposed to without a permit. The parking Nazis rarely miss.

Used to call UNL campus police the PLG (Parking Lot Gestapo).

I once got a ticket for parking over the line in a gravel lot. Took me hours to get the ticket revoked.


Back in the day during the freaking summer I parked in the gravel lot behind the cement one at Harper-Schramm-Smith. Literally nobody else was in the lot but those bastards still gave me a ticket. 

 
Parking has been an issue at UNL for close to 50 years.  Some things never change.

Just saying....I'm proof that you could (in my day) graduate and get your diploma without paying off all your tickets.
