Gambled and failed. Bought a pass through LSU about two months ago (406?) on Skip Bertman between River Road and Nicholson. I knew post game would be a potential long wait,but pre-game I never dreamed it would take an hour and a half to go the last 3 miles on River Road into the lot.

After the game was a nightmare.We finally got up on I-10 downtown about 1:00. Will not buy a pass again.

Was curious about any other parking adventues,good or bad.

Took us less than 20 minutes from CEBA to the Acadian I-10 on-ramp. It's all dependent on which direction you're going.

I have a pass in lot 102 and haven't had many issues with is on Nicholson heading towards the bridge. Great pass.

I road with a friend of mine with a pass out of 404 and it was pretty quick getting home.

Bought a pass in 406 this weekend and I would rather someone throw me off the west Upper Deck than ever frick with River Road again. Terrible doesnt even begin to describe it.

lot 409 has been a nightmare all year. Getting in is ok,but leaving is a cluster.One game they sent us down US 30,the next game we are funneled down Berbank.

108 was a nightmare to get out of, crossing Nicholson to get to lot was a nightmare. got to Mandeville after the game around 2;30am

I was wondering the same thing. My pass is in Lot 104 and I parked in it for the first time this YEAR. The entire lot was at a standstill - no getting out - until around 1 am. I've never had that happen like that before.

I figured it was too late to post a parking rant, lol. We stayed at the Houma House and did not get back there til almost 3! Ouch!

Parked in the levee lots, left the stadium after the game ended and made it to I-10 in about an hour. Thought that was pretty good

Drove home to Vinton, la...we were in bed by 2:30 am

108 sucks. But we continue to park there as we can do what we need to do as parents and still make the games on time.

I left the South Stadium club right after the game was over. It helps that we exit the stadium down an elevator. I walked quickly with wife in tow back to our car in the Law School parking lot. Got in my car and I was on I-10 Westbound in less than 5 minutes off of Dalrymple. I got home to Lake Chuck by 1:00 a.m. (yes, I probably drove a little too fast). No traffic at all on I-10. I hope no one else figures out the free parking and quick access to I-10 West from Law School/University High parking. This season has been the best from a traffic standpoint and it costs me nothing to park. Tailgating is a free setup as well.

I parked near Ivar's and rode my bike to campus. From the time the game ended to the time I was in my car and on I10 was about 30 minutes.

Paid to park on Roosevelt around 2:00. I was on the interstate within 45 minutes of getting back to my car.

I was in Lot 108. Arrived going down Nicholson which it took 30 minutes from Pastime to get to parking lot. Red light at I-10 ramp was screwed up by cop running around with his head cut off. Wasted 10 minutes of my 30 minutes right there.

Left not long after the game and it only took 30 minutes to go from Lot to Pastime parking lot to drop people off going down River Road. 13th gate wasn't busy so traffic flowed. 13th gate is a killer in October.

Much better than the Ole Miss game which took an 1 hr to arrive and an 1 hr to leave.

24 minutes from Parade Ground to Acadian/Government via Dalrymple.

As others have said, it all depends on where you park and the direction you are trying to go.
