So me and the misses have season tix and haven't missed a game this season. Still, we can't leave the house till around 3 because finding a babysitter for more than 8 hours is a tough sell.

For all the games this year other than Ole Miss and Miss State, we've parked in Levee Lot or Hayfield. For those other two, we've managed to park in the pseudo-ghetto around Aster/Alaska flower streets.

But for tomorrow, I'm guessing even that's gonna be a pain in the arse. I'm willing to part with cash to park, but does anybody have any suggestions other than walking from Tigerland or the Dead Presidents?

Dalrymple is rough even that close to kickoff. Chimes is most definitely full up. Is there anyway to get to any of the pay lots on campus that late?

Saw parking passes listed on stubhub. not sure for where but if you don't mind paying ...

eta: And I feel your pain about the babysitting ... our youngest is finally old enough to come and enjoy OR she's got good enough friends that she can spend the night with.

hard to say because I'm usually there earlier, but there are a significant amount of people that come tailgate and leave in time to go see it on TV, maybe that will free up some spots, cow palace used to be good for late arrival parking, good luck

Too late... I parked in a visitor spot at my condo and gave away my parking spot to another person on TD (that I've never met)

I heard that McKinley High School has parking and a shuttle and people to watch the parked cars.

So does L'auberge.

So does CATS.

Taco Bell sells parking spots (as does Co-Op) but they'll probably fill up.

I have a tenant/roommate otherwise could have done both parking spots.

I live near the Mellow Mushroom.

Bring bikes on a bike rack, park your car wherever, and ride your bikes to the game.

I can't imagine how quick all the lots will fill up. We setup our spot in the old front nine lot earlier and there was as much activity at 6pm tonight as there usually is 9:30-10:00 on Gameday. I'd guess the lot will be full before 9:00 in the morning.

Where do you lock your bikes up? And how do you carry beer?
