What did you do about parking? The choices around campus seem limited. Did you use the shuttles from various pickup/dropoff places around town? If so, how did that work out especially after the game?

TIA and

I don't remember specifics but I don't remember it being a problem. Of course we've always started early.

Paid to park in a garage or bank lot near the Convention Center (Cumberland at Henley) and it was not a bad walk. Cumberland is the main strip that goes by campus.

FYI, was there for LSU baseball last year and Cumberland is a complete mess. Being dug up and widened.

Kind of a mess from what I remember. Get a spot and prepare for a walk

Paid to park in a garage near Calhoun's. Ate and drank there for a while, then walked in from there. It was not a bad walk.

Parked off campus and took a shuttle. Plenty of shuttle buses after the game.

I parked in paid parking like most places, when rocking 100k fans so it takes time. It is a fine place, so take your time and enjoy, walk a little, does the heart good.

Uber. Or dock your boat on the river.

The last few times we paid to park in the lot by Calhoun's. Convenient to exit and an easy walk to the stadium.

We parked in a parking garage a few blocks away. Got there not long before kickoff. Had no problems at all. This was in 2011, and Tennessee was a dumpster fire. Not unlike this year. I don't think you'll have a problem

Parked downtown at a paid lot, walked to Calhoun's on the River and then walked to the game.

It was pretty easy for us, we parked on a back street residential area on the stadium side of Henley and Cumberland intersection for free. There won't be available spots if you arrive too late (if it hasn't changed)but then we just followed the crowd, walked down the street just a little, through some apartments and then took a trail through a little wooded patch and over some railroad tracks. Came out at some student housing just off Neyland Dr. I doubt it was 1/4 mile walk...and did I mention FREE? We tailgated there for a bit and got our drink on before heading to the stadium. You will be surrounded by Orange and hear plenty of Rocky Top but it was eazy peazey in and out for us.

Park your boat in the river.

Park downtown and shuttle or walk over. It is a solid walk if you choose that route, but the shuttles are easy.
