Tailgate Spot:

· Stadium parking (lot 63?)  Get there early, they have the worst parking system we’ve ever seen.  If it’s crowded due to Sr. night, or if there are championship or bowl implications, and you’re at the back of the line, you’ll be lucky to get into the lot in time to tailgate!  Truly miserable.
