Just received season tickets and looking at gameday parking map, it looks like all the "game by game parking" around parade grounds and Tower is now reserved. We have tailgated by Coates Hall for close to 20 years and it looks like that lot is also marked as reserved now. Is this area no longer going to be available by paying 40 for vehicle and 50 for trailer? Anyone know anything about this?

You are correct sir. This was announced in the spring. You will need a season parking pass to park in those lots near Coates and Pleasant Hall. As of last week, LSU was still selling them for $500/year (non-renewable I think).

You will notice that the circle around Parade Grounds is still blue ($40 - game by game), but Coates is now designated as Lot 205 (reserved) and Pleasant Hall is now designated as Lot 207 (reserved).

I tailgate in front of Memorial Tower. We can still park there with the $40 fee but I'm worried about the spillover from Coates and Pleasant. What are your plans?

Those lots weren't always reserved? That's going to be a nice cluster for the 1st home game.


Here's the official list of new permit lots:

New Reserved (Season Permit) Lots

Various cash parking lots are now reserved season permit lots. These areas are listed below:

Coates Hall (Lot 205)
Pleasant Hall/Music Building Lot (Lot 207)
Geology Lot (Lot 306)
Nicholson Hall (Lot 307)
Union Lot (Lot 308)

I saw on the news last week that Nicholson and Burbank will be off limits to park. Seems like tailgating on campus will be a madhouse until enough people get fed up and stop showing up. So sad.

I never post on the rant and I haven't helped run tailgate for the past five or six years. That said, its almost become easier for the average small to medium sized group to tailgate at ROAD GAMES than tailgating for LSU home games.
