It is steep, but gives a very good alternative for those without parking passes.

That price is ridiculous, but any new parking options are gonna get snapped up. Maybe that $$$ can go towards patching potholes in town?

Very few options these days especially if you can't get up there early

Saw a post noting it was sold out. Plenty of demand supporting the pricing!

The price isn’t bad for gameday parking. Go on Facebook today and try to buy a parking pass. $50 is a fair price and it being sold out shows that.

The minimum donation required for the college street deck is $350. Somebody, quick do the math on what that is per home game.

I will be interested to see how it works, but I actually like the changes made by Boone with parking. If you want Gameday parking, go to the deck. They are trying to reserve the downtown stops for other patrons by placing 2 hour limits on them during large university events.

I used to get one of those Queen Street spots- not very long ago. Paid $2 for the meter for all day. Are those gone or changed now? I probably parked there maybe 3 years ago

I’m not sure of that specific location, but anything with a meter is limited to 2 hours now on game days. You can technically stay there all day but you have to keep track of time and re-pay it everytime it expires.

I think the fine for going over the meter is only $25 so im good with that unless its recently changed.

Be careful. They have Hampton’s on speed dial. This is the first day of enforcement so we’ll see how it goes
