comfort stations are nice bathrooms. Usually AC trailers with a mens and womens side with 3-4 stalls/urinals for each.

Parking is so fricked because of all the people who go just to get drunk and party that have no intention of going to the game.


wow. how bad do you suck? having people out there partying is what makes our gameday the premiere tailgating experience in the country. If you want to go to games where no one has fun, go to a Tulane game.

People who think that those without a ticket SHOULD be allowed on campus to add to the wonderful tailgating atmosphers have no right to bitch about parking on campus. You can't have it both ways.

this is an absurd statement. There are MANY MANY families that tailgate and then either stay during the game while one or tow attend or go home after spening the day. Many of these are kids who grow up waiting until it is their turn to actually go to the game. Where they park is their choice and if they come tailgate should be their choice as well. All this rules for EVERYTHING and being EXCLUSIVE instead of INCLUSIVE smells of Al Gore, Obama and the democratic socialist party.

Many people come to campus just to tailgate..and not go to the game. They leave right before game time, but while they are there they are taking up parking places that ticket-holders could be using. I don't care that they do this or not...my point is that people who bitch about not having enough good parking are contradicting themselves when they say they want a billion taligaters on campus.

I emailed Herb and told him exactly where we tailgate, right across from tureaud on s. stadium, and asked him if I would be able to drive there around 8/830, and he sent me this:


There are no changes to the control points to campus or the time that those control points go into effect. The control of the inner campus is an existing policy that was emphasized in the press release to discourage vehicles without permits from attempting to drive through campus on game days.

Sorry for any confusion.

Herb

I guess so, I addressed him as Mr. Vincent in the e-mail and he replied with Herb.

Same guy who thinks we should dump all handicap parking near front of the store because those people don't need to shop anyway? Be honest!

The people in the AD/ticket/parking offices are a lot more friendly and customer service oriented than many of you give them credit for.
