Yeah. Last year, I selected the parking lot just south of the Hump (lot 3) as my first option and got it. I paid another $100 this year, got neither of my two top choices and got put in lot 4 by the soccer field. I'm pretty pissed. What happened since last year that would knock me so far down the totem pole?

Did y’all receive a email with tracking number like football or did they just show up?

The only thing I can think of is more higher level BDC members bought passes. I've always heard that BDC rank applies more to your parking situation than your seat selection. I didn't buy one last year because I didn't pay attention to all of the press releases and just thought that the parking lot thing was temporary until I saw them guarding empty lots during the 4th inning of a Tuesday night game in early March. I knew then that I better try to get one this year.

Anybody in the Memphis and surrounding areas got their tickets? I have not. Also, did they come by Fedex, UPS or USPS?

[Mjoelner34]

Mine came by USPS Priority Mail and did not include a notice from MSU that they were on the way. And, I live in Starkville.

I felt forced to buy one in the handicap parking lot as MSU changed up all the parking areas and started charging for them. Didn't want to be a mile away with my diabetic ulcer prone feet. Now, you are right in that many of us will not be there for a lot of midweek games. So those parking lots will likely look empty even though we purchased spots. So, I am one to probably blame as well.

Is it my imagination or did they change up the ADA lots a little this year? Last year I think they only had one lot and it was like 3 or 4 tiers where the dark blue is now. I also recall people with ADA passes weren't allowed in there without a parking pass also. Looks like its broken into 2 lots this year. ADA with parking pass and ADA without parking pass for a $5 charge. I think its much better that way. I'm sure there are some ADA folks that physically can't make enough games to justify a parking pass yet they should also have a place to park.

I got stuck in Lot 4 too. I was in Lot 2 the past 2 seasons.

I'm in Lot 2. Which one is that?

It's not much further away than where I was. It's the principle of it. All parking is not created equal, but the price is the same. I got something worse for the same price despite attending 80% of the games. It's also a tiny lot. They probably oversold the lot by 50%, and parking pass holders will get redirected to South Farm when it fills up.

The big one.

Last year you could just drive up and show your handicap placard and pay $5. This year, you have to have a season parking ticket AND handicap placard to get in.
