The parking lot has at least two hundred spaces but it's usually full around 10:30 am on gamedays. The giving amount is whatever you can stand to give. This policy has been abused in the past but last season it has gotten better with more oversight. We have many people who just show up to tailgate for the day and that's fine. There is no 'set' fee for admission.

97% of the people who come do the right thing and donate what they can to the cause.

cool thanks mush! one more ? is the parking lot fee 30.00 per spot like most others close to the stadium?

Are you wanting to park where the tailgate is or are you wanting to park and walk to the tailgate? I park a couple of blocks away and pay 10 bucks. It will probably be 20 this year. I've seen the parking lot mongers trying to get everything they can, but if you argue they will negotiate.

Especially with all the building that has been going on over the last couple of years. Parking lots are dwindling in numbers.

Huddle Tailgates are great.

I took my 4 year old to the Broncos tailgate last year. This is no sh*t... today in the car he said to me: "Dad, I want to go to one of those cookout things we went to last year at the Panthers." I looked back with a tear in my eye and said "Son, that is what is called a tailgate." It's like my boy just banged his first hottie. :cryin:

understand big country, some people who have never parked there don't realize this, but if you bring a tent and chairs that it costs another $30 to rent the spot for that. The parking lot operators budget getting $30 per spot and tents and chairs suck up another spot. You can't put out a tent in the middle of the lot where cars can't get around to the other spaces. Only after the lot has closed can you put up a tent maybe.

We just bite the bullet and buy and extra space or two and that settles it.

Believe it or not some lots won't let you buy an extra space just for a tent--cars only.

      The Shedur pranker has been identified. Son of Falcons coach copied the number

      By MHS831 · Posted

      When I was in my early 20s, this kid wound have been put on a pedestal.  Not only did he get the information from an Atlanta coach, he framed the Saints.  He is on a different level.  Don't get me wrong--it was stupid-- and if I was his dad I would be pissed--but the nerve--the balls---the unbridled disregard for the consequences of the establishment--few people have ever reached this level.  But there are others who were more brilliant, but for these examples, we have to go to the Ivey League and MIT.  Let's start with MIT: During the 1982 season, seven members of the Delta Kappa Epsilon fraternity at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) managed to bury a weather balloon under the field in Harvard's stadium over a three-week period. The meticulous planning and technologically advanced prank led to those MIT students (safely) disrupting the Harvard/Yale game during the second quarter. The balloon, with "MIT" written all over it, inflated to eight feet before popping. The student newspaper at MIT covered the event with a simple, fitting headline. "Saturday's score: MIT 1, Harvard/Yale 0." -------------------- Yes, another Harvard/Yale game. This time, though, MIT wasn't involved. No, this clever trick in 2004 was the brainchild of two Yale students with the assistance of about 20 others. Disguised as "Harvard Pep Squad" members, the Yale students distribute red and white placards to the Crimson crowd. They assured the fans that "Go Harvard" would be spelled out on the cards. In reality? "WE SUCK" appeared on the Harvard side. --------------------------

      Also remember that essentially Derrick Brown is an offseason addition to the defense too, that’s not insignificant when we’re talking about improving the defense from last year.
