So I'm trying to find a place for him to park that would be easy on his car, but at the same time convenient. The only place I can think of would be a parking garage on campus, but I'm fishing for a better option. Any help would be most appreciated. Thanks Scooter!

Get there early and go to the Ag building. Best day of game parking on campus. |

The early part is no problem, we usuallly get there around 4-5am. Your talking about the lots south of lane by the schott.
http://tp.osu.edu/Maps/FootballParkingMap.pdf by building 298 and 003 right. I will definitely be there as I am going to all home games except Kent State. How are the staff and rent a cops there. I remember seeing an article on here from the dispatch saying that Fawcett is the most ticketed (open containers) anyways. HOPEFULLY the cops and the fans can be somewhat civil and co-exist. Thanks for the tip!

Tha Ag building will fill up by 9am. Get there real early. Great parking though. Shaded by trees and lots of green space. |

 COLUMBUS, Ohio - Changes for this year's Ohio State football season include concession stands that will accept credit cards, a taxi stand to help visitors find a cab after the game and changes in parking, university officials said Tuesday.
More than one million fans are expected on campus during the seven-game home season, 10TV's Kurt Ludlow reported.

Parking for Kent State Game

I say two games because inevitably, T&P/AD will make changes after the first game and the guys working the lot may have changes forced on them for the Akron game.

Scooter, any major changes to the parking routine for this weekend's game against Kent State? Any idea on how early I should arrive or what route I should take?
I'll be coming in on 23 and hope to be able to turn on Dodridge and would like to park near Fawcett Center or near the AE building. I seem to recall getting all messed up last year with roads closed off for the Cincinnati game.
I would greatly appreciate any advice that you could give.
Thanks,
