So now that I have more time, I'll expand on "poorly."
4 or 5 years ago, I got a pair of GA season tickets for the first time. It turned out to be a little cheaper than buying them at the gate, and I got a parking pass with them for parking lots that were the lowest rung. I think it was like Zone 3 or 4 at the time. Look at the map in the link below. I could park in a lot beside the Smith building. Or down at the lot by the Trojan Center. Neither were a far walk from the stadium. Yeah, wasn't as nice as right by it or in the main tailgate area, but still I could always find a spot in one of the two lots. Now you have to have Stadium Club tickets just to park there. A single ticket is $500 for the year after ticket price and TSL donation.

It has since changed. The next year I decided that since we had enjoyed going to all the games for the first time since we graduated, I'd get us some nicer, chairback reserved seats. One level below the Stadium Club, which is the highest level. But I would have to pay in additional for a parking pass. An insane amount. The year before my $100 pair of tix came with a pass, now my $500 tix came with no pass. And vehicles were no longer allowed on the Tailgate Terrace right by the stadium. But the year long RV reserved lot across the street let no normal cars in. So you have to displace all of those folks somewhere. But there's not enough parking, so I guess that is why you have to be a high roller to get a spot.
The RV lot was barely half full most games. You'd walk through there from whatever neighborhood and house you had parked in front of, and see a half empty lot, but they wouldn't sell single game spots or open it up to cars. All the same RV's every game.
Now we usually park way down in a neighborhood across from the entrance to the stadium. There are a few houses that will let you park in their yard for $5 or $10 a game. But you can usually drive on down and park for free.
And last year they renovated the Tailgate Terrace. Tore down a bunch of old bushes and shrubs, put in sidewalks, lights, etc. And I don't think they allow people to set up and tailgate there. No grills, tents, etc. I could be wrong.
They also have traffic issues on gamedays. Certain roads are blocked. And I have a wonderful story about the incompetent rent-a-cop campus police if anyone wants to PM me, I'd be glad to share it with you.
