Sorry,
I didn't make myself clear. I used to tailgate with him. In exchange for giving up his tailgate lot they gave him a handicapped spot inside the stadium garage. That's great, except he can't tailgate. I also have yellow parking (which doesn't allow for tailgating). I was looking for some help to get to a tailgate lot via trade (yellow passes) or sale.

I only have tickets to the season opener, so I do not have parking passes. Do I need to buy parking tickets in advance or are there lots you can go to the day of game? Also, where would you guys recommend me parking? I don't care about it being close to the stadium, just would like it to be one where its not too difficult getting in and out of. This is my first game at odu. Was only lucky enough to see the game in hampton a year or two ago. I have been to many basketball games, but usually the parking garage next to the ted is easy enough. I am not sure how things get on a football day

I don't know about this year, but last year both parking garages at the Ted were free and the parking garage on the other side of the new library were free. It didn't matter which garage I used, traffic was a mess after the games.

I never had a problem finding a place to park, whether I showed up hours early to tailgate or in the last hour before the game. Try 43rd street. A bit of a walk to stadium, but quick exit after game.

At least 1 garage beside the Ted is always open. If they have an event than they only allow football parking in one. If there is not an event I think they have both of them open.
