Parking and tailgating around Memorial Stadium?

[osucollegebuck]

They still have information from 2007 on the USC website has anyone found any good info on the situation out there? It looks like you have to have a parking pass to enter any of their lots, but are there other lots within walking distance of the stadium? Once again Ohio State does a much better job with their game day information.


Thanks

I wish I had the problem of trying to figure out where to park for the Ohio State @ USC game.

WARNING! A popular scam regarding parking is a person will charge $5-10 for parking in their private home driveway or on their lawn. OFTEN, the person doing this DOES NOT LIVE AT THAT HOME. Try to keep to official lots. Don't make a winning day end on a towed car sour note.

Yeah, I won't have that problem either.




I'll leave the rental car at the hotel.

We thought about getting a hotel room in the area for the night just to be able to avoid driving, parking, etc but OCBF is a glutton for punishment.
