Tail Gate Spot Parking Policy (merged)

Now that you are not alone trying to get back inside you better reserve an hour on the patience meter.

you mean extra beverage? im usually not very impatient on saturday night after a football game.

Jesus Christ!
Here's an idea.
Go early, unload and then you can choose to park anywhere in the D parking lot. Which runs right along the tailgate area.
THEN, you'll be close enough to WALK to your vehicle with your stuff when tailgating is over.
Quit complaining people.
Be thankful Cajun Field has a setup like it does that allows everyone to tailgate in one area. Be thankful you're also allowed to park in that same fenced in area.
If you want to park in your tailgating area, go tailgate at the Blackham!

Don't see how you can say it reduces traffic in the tailgating area. Isn't the new policy that there are no cars in the tailgating area.

last year, 2 trips through tailgating area

this year, 4 trips through tailgating area

i do, never been told i wasnt, the lot is totally empty at 30 minutes.

WAS totally empty at 30 minutes...now...god knows when it will be empty.

so they would then have to walk through the entire area and check every vehicle to see if they bought a tag. its either an inclusive deal or nothing at all. you cant do it spot by spot. they would have to constantly try to police it.

This is what was the policy for decades, until now.

id be willing to bet, 30 minutes. People will make adjustments.

The best after game tailgating in the country.

pretty obvious we arent gonna change each others minds on this. I think its a good change, especially financially. the safety thing can be argued, but im more with you are either a safe person or an idiot, if you are an idiot you are probably always an idiot. One way to keep the idots away during tailgating hours is to not allow them in the tailgate area. unfortunately that does hurt the smart safe people.
