I'll look for two guys wearing red

Hi all, just want to confirm a couple things. Graduated in 2015–planning a trip back with friends for this game. 
 

tailgaiting is back open this year right? At the fields south of the stadium? Do we need car reservations or anything? We’d plan to get there around 9-9:30 for a noon game…

Yes tailgating is back open. You will need to purchase a parking pass to get into the lots with a vehicle. I believe you are allowed two passes per order. 

here is a link to the parking passes (just click on Single game parking):

Great. Is that for parking at the stadium specifically?

What about pulling up into those fields roughly 4-5 blocks south of the stadium just north of the business school? Maybe we could park our car not at the stadium that day…

Although might just be easier to tailgate like the adults we now are in the stadium Parking lot?

you will still need a pass to get into the grass lots. It isn't like it was when you and I were there and it was $20 cash when you pulled up unfortunately.

Last time I parked in the lot between Mellancamp Pavilion and AH. Is tailgating no longer allowed there?

[Stuhoo 80,774]

Got my tickets, my airplane, my car rental, and my hotel (Bedford was the closest I could get lol) for the…

Ohio State game.

It’s unlikely, but if we’re undefeated by then, it’ll be the IU game of all-time.

 

[DoctorP 1,061]

Yeah, we’re struggling to find a place to stay for the Cincy game. Closest hotel or Airbnb 40 min away.

Yes it is. That’s where we set up.

Cool. That’s where we’re aiming as well.

Natural and Boob usually set up shop in the small gap between the rows of porto-johns near the frat section

They like to be “in the s**t”, if you will.

I believe I'll be at the game!

Hopefully everyone has their parking passes - Cincinnati and OSU parking is sold out as of a couple days ago. Seems odd that parking sells out before the games do but that is indicative of a parking issue that should be addressed.  I don’t think it’s a matter of folks buying parking passes only because as I recall you can’t buy one without also purchasing tickets. I could be wrong about that though.

Any suggestions for parking for a guy that didn't get a parking pass?

I plan to park between AH and Mellancamp pavilion.  I believe (HOPE) that is a first come first serve lot.

I wouldn’t bank on that. That lot requires hang tags, but can’t remember the gate number. Even the tailgate fields south of 17th require a pass now.

Oye. Guess I’ll be playing it by ear then. They gotta put us somewhere.
