If you tried to order football parking passes yesterday, you know all about the technical problems with the process. More on that in another post.

But season passes for parking decks (along with per-game RV parking) remain on sale, and three of the four decks are still available. The price for a parking deck pass is $120 – not bad at all for a guaranteed and sheltered parking spot. It’s certainly cheaper (over the course of a season) than any of the municipal or private lots and decks around downtown or campus, and you don’t have to join the mad dash first thing in the morning to claim any of the sparse open free parking around the periphery of the campus.

It’s sad that this is what it’s come to when so many of us remember just pulling up anywhere on campus, but those days are long gone.
