Perhaps, but let's put this in context. I've paid $10 to park at a HS football playoff game before because the free lots were full. If someone wants to walk a 1/2 mile to save $10 dollars that's up to them. But sporting events that attract crowds will usually have parking venues that cost money.
I think you need free parking somewhere. Anything around Cajun field can be paid, such as Lite Center lot and Cajundome, but Bougeois and coliseum road should be free. I haven’t looked to see if it is. I have passes so it’s no concern to me
Everyone is now paying $10 bucks a game. $250 RCAF gets you the right to buy 2 passes at $60 bucks a piece. $10 a game. So new money for parking this year will be more than just the cars parking across the street.
I’m not a fan of the no cash to park policy. I guess I can see why, but I don’t have a credit or debit card. I live under a rock. I think your going to see some really long lines with these card swiping machines too.
I wish I could be there this weekend but we are out of the country on vacation. Luckily, if I am able to attend any games this year, (and I hope to) I will be staying at Hilton Gardens Inn, which is where we usually stay in Lafayette or I will stay somewhere else and park at my daughters house just across the coulee bridge from the Cajun Dome. I don't mind paying the 10 clams, but it is nice not to get in traffic before or after the games.
