Does anyone have any idea what is best when it comes to parking at UofSC? The Gamecocks' website wasn't much help unless you want to pay $40+ to park close.
Is there public and private lots in and around Columbia where visitors can go?

Re: South Carolina game parking
They have several tailgate pavilions that are private near the stadium. These have parking and a covered Pavilion in the center with shade and facilities.
They also have a huge RV lot across from the Fairgrounds (Visiting SEC fans show up mid-week by the hundreds)
The Fairgrounds is a 5 minute walk from the stadium. When, I attended a concert at the stadium, this was public parking on the grass with full tailgating.
I am sure others will have specifics, but there should be plenty of options within walking distance. The stadium is in a fairgrounds/industrial area away from downtown proper.

Re: South Carolina game parking
Several of us are parking in the Blue Lot (Fairgrounds) a short walk from the stadium. Here is a link to help you figure out your options:

There is a lot of public parking not too far from the stadium, especially up and down Bluff Rd. Many businesses that are closed on saturdays offer parking.
