Need wind as well to dry out to top soil
Along with compacted ground from which causes the ponding like what the webcam shows.
Park in the Gen staff (yellow) or reserved (red) lots on the east side of campus - by the greenhouses, around Agronomy, Kildee & Forker (Agronomy & Forker lots will probably be full by 1pm).
Park at the gas station in Story City and walk
I plan on doing Uber, so either way don’t stress yourself. Hit me on 5152490309. Texting me works better especially if my Uber app is on, because for “Safety” reasons Call’s don’t come through my but texts do. Which doesn’t really make sense to me because reading a text if I’m driving seems more dangerous than my car Bluetooth phone accepting calls, what I know.
All of the staff lots south of the railroad tracks. Start at the power plant and work your way west
Has anyone heard if there will be issues with parking around lots close to where GameDay is being filmed? We scored two tickets and a parking pass in S3, but now I'm worried since that's the lot closest to where the show will be filmed. We have a toddler so I'm hopeful that we can still park there.
Does S3 still exist?

Regardless the set will likely be at the far south end of that area to allow as much space for crowd as possible.
I would bet they take some of S2 or so as well with the frontage road.

S3 has assinged, reserved stalls. Bigger donor parking There is a parking spot number on your pass. You will have a parking spot.
Per cyclone.com under Priority Parking.
Does anyone know if this is just for priority parking pass holders or is this for general public too? This means people could potentially be in their cars for 10 + hours until lots open?
G2/G3 (Iowa game only)
Fans wanting to park RVs in the Vet Med lot for the Iowa State/Iowa game will line up Friday afternoon from 1:30pm-5:30pm in lots G4/G5.

With over 100,000 people in Ames for the Iowa Iowa State game, there is no way they are going to close the lots.
