re: Tailgating/Parking question

Too much conflicting advice.

The plan is to get out there at 6AM, get to the east lot, and proceed cautiously when scoping out a tailgate spot. If I meet a hostile person, I'll simply ask what they think is best, offer a beer/food and cooperate. It's gonna be a long day, no reason to start shite early and let it build up for 12 hours.

3 quick questions:
How close do you think I can get my truck to my tailgating spot? Are you allowed to leave the parking lot once you enter it? And if I needed someone to drop something off later in the day, could I meet them close to the entrance or road easily and get it from them?

I tailgate in that lot...it is much more family oriented than a lot of the other areas...don't let your crowd get too out of hand and don't play a bunch of blaring rap music over everyone else's music and you will be fine...

there is plenty of space, so there is no need at all to get there at 6 AM...if you arrive before 10 AM, you'll be fine...most people tailgate out under the oak trees and there is usually some room there...if all else fails, just tailgate along the side of the batting cage building (it provides nice shelter from the elements anyway)...

to answer your specific questions...you can typically back your truck up to your spot and actually use your tailgate to set up on....you cannot leave the lot once you enter...having someone drop something off is not technically easy, but as long as there is not a hell of a line and you are cool, the ladies at the gate are usually pretty accomodating...

I'll keep an eye on this thread, so if you have more questions, just ask...
