For those who have attended the tournament in the past, does anyone have information regarding parking? I have searched SECsports.net and the Regions Park website, but haven't found anything. I will be by myself for the first couple of days of the tournament and really don't want to walk a great distance alone after the game Wednesday night. Any information is much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Parking is usually not an issue.

They have busses that run back and forth from the lots that are far away.

As long as Bama isn't playing, you can pretty much park right next to the stadium.

Parking is not an issue until the weekend, and only if Bama is playing. Even then, it's only an issue if you don't get there early.

I've gone probalby 6 or 7 times over the years and have never had to park other than at the stadium. If you get there 30 minutes to an hour or so before the game you shouldn't have a problem. Biggest crowds in the past have been for Alabama but still have never had a problem. But also I've never made it over on Wednesday but Thursday through Sunday have been fine.

Even when Bama is playing, you can use the shuttle busses.

non issue. Even for a Bama game at night on the weekend, you'll be ok.

Thanks Tigerfan and JPLSU.

I'm just a little nervous because I'm not familiar with the area. I wanted to have all of the info printed out before I leave. I can't believe that they don't have parking information. With most special events usually there is some kind on information concerning event parking.

You'll be directed where to park by the tournament volunteers.

Thanks everyone, I appreciate the input. I plan on getting to the game at least 1 hour prior because I like watching the team warm-up.

It will actually be the start of the 2nd session, so you probably won't be able to get in 1 hour hearly. Show up and get in line, but they'll clear the park after game 2, while the teams are warming up, then let everyone back in for the 2nd session.

But the lines won't be long on Wed.

Well that sucks. I don't mind waiting in line to watch the Tigers play, but really wanted to be in the park for warm-ups.

You'll have no trouble getting into one of the pictured lots unless you're arriving just prior to the start of a Bama game on the weekend.

There's a shite ton of parking right at the park and the last time I was there, it was free.

I purchased general admission tickets, so I'm not sure where I will be sitting. Hopefully, I can sit with other Tiger Fans. I'm just happy to be able to watch our guys play in the tournament.

3rd base side is where you want to be most of the tourney... It's the "shady" side.
