Is it shocking at all that the free spots filled up first and filled up early?
It's not "shocking" it's just different than in previous years.
For instance I have been able to drive up to Kirby Smith and the surrounding neighborhood and park in the lot or at the elementary school for years.
Now the school is off limits, the band practice field is off limits, the curb parking is gone etc.
My OPINION is that there has been some pretty dramatic parking and traffic pattern changes, a lot of people have not adapted, and that has led to a whole series of events. From no-shows, to anger at LSU, to people circling or backed up in their cars for an extra hour or two causing even more delays, etc.

I probably parked next to you at some point over the last several years. But like you said, that school finally started charging. Actually, I don't even think it's that school that is charging, I think some other group is just taking up money there.

ETA: What was once free parking for the earlier arrivers to tailgate is now $40.00. Instead the earlier arrivers take what is left of free parking which has shrunk over the last 4 o5 5yrs.
