Parking Advice, particularly for bigger games, and particularly for late arrival

I'd park at the Hilton and jump on the shuttle. Quick trip and easy to get out after the game. If you have 4 or less you probably pay less.

 

If you do the shuttle, get there more than 30 min early. I took the shuttle to a game LY, got there 30 min before the game and they waited on late stragglers to get on the bus, so we got into the game 15 min late.

 

Thinking about the shuttle route myself…

Shuttles

 

Approach from 8th avenue and turn on to NW 22nd street keep driving towards Univ Ave plenty of parking for $50 or less, think 1-2 Aves or 3-5 Places. (pick a location on the west side of 22nd easier egress after the game)

less than 10 min to stadium enter thru the NE corner of the stadium, MUCH smaller to no wait vs anything on the west side

leaving after the game it should faster to use Univ ave to head west, it will be a cluster to try to get back to 8th on 22nd.

FYI
take your first Right (NW 23rd st) will take you back to 8th Ave if necessary

Enjoy the game

 

If you do..use the Hilton on 34th

 

Was this from the Hilton lot or the mall? I've never had more than a 5 minute wait behind the Hilton. Plus it one of the closest routes and hardly ever gets caught up by traffic.

 

Other commitments? It's Florida Tennessee!

 

Sorry, should have specified, it was at Celebration Pointe, over by Spurrier's Grill.

 

6pm is cutting it close for any parking. VA parking is free and is just a 20 min BRISK walk to stadium.

 

So $15 is per person, not per vehicle? How much is student ghetto parking nowadays if there’s still such a thing?

 

Two years ago we were in town for the Tennessee game. Not wanting long walk to the stadium we found the perfect parking spot. 150 feet from the stadium on the ground level in the parking garage...the only hitch..it was $275.00. But I would do it again. Did the same in Salt Lake City at the Utah game..great parking: the rest of the experience sucked.

 

You can buy parking passes here. They are pricey though.

$15 per person

 

Yep I have no idea on the other. I do know after any game when I am sitting on the bus, watching the thousands of other folks walking block after block, while I'm sitting in AC, the $15 dollars sure feels worth it when I get to the car beyond most of the traffic jams heading south. If its raining that's a whole other story.

 

Ok good to know. Thanks.

 

I’m coming in from 75 north, get off at alachua take 441 Till it turns into13th , take 13th to 7th or 5th, turn right , lot price starts at $20 and go up to around $50
We get reserved parking at the old jj finely school, but they do rent some lots out for 30 dollars,

 

The ghetto is long gone

 

So there’s no houses in the area providing parking for GameDay?
