    Yep, but pretty much right at the edge next to a pretty main road that goes up to the Mountains. I guess the parking could double as commuter lots.

    I do agree it’s a waste of prime real estate. I guess Utah football isn’t as big out there.

    I've never been out there during Football season so I can't say, but the slopes at Alta are magnificent (and ski-only to boot!)

    They probably didn’t intertwine their campus in a city. Uwf here in pcola is a smaller college but they have plenty of property as I’m sure many schools do.

    The first time I skied Alta, we watched them haul a body down from the backcountry of a skier that died in the previous snow storm and was just found. Lots of guys there with duct-tape holding their ski-suits together. Pretty extreme stuff.

    They’re not too worried about building classrooms. Not a huge priority up at UK.

    They are obviously mentally challenged to create a stadium with parking.

    Yes, not your prototypical college campus stadium... ;)

    The prototypes where built during a time when college football was in its infancy. They are bad.

    I agree… the lack of actual true parking is a pain in the butt and an issue for many college (traditional football college).
    However… and I know I’m probably alone here… there is something about trying to find a parking lot behind a frat house and walking down lined streets with 10s of thousands of other fans to the stadium. It’s just part of the experience for me. Part of the ambiance.

    I do kinda like walking down the street with a bunch of clowns after we curb stomp them but I’d still park right beside the stadium if I could.

    There’s nothing like throwing up in the church parking lot

    I guess there's some things in life that you just have to experience for yourself.

    Did that in Denver last February, on the way to the airport.

    that was a rough funeral.
    I haven’t had Skrewball since.

    Andy Jean loves what Mertz brings to the QB1 position for the Gators...
