Football Parking Selection

Have they made any announcement about where the cutoff will be to get parking for football? Gold? Cardinal? States? Century?
 
Does anyone know the selection date/time by donor level. It is pretty evident that Directors started today based on counts in some of the up front lots and I know when we select but it would be nice to see the entire picture.
Captain next Tues (6/13) in the AM
 
Gold level, lower half. Monday the 19th noon

I don't think there will be an announced cutoff as the addition of the 750 spots at Ved Med for Donor Parking will show plenty of available parking for donors. That accounts for 17.8% of the 4057 available non-reserved lot spaces as of 4:00PM.
B1 and C1/C2 makeup 26.2% of the available lot spaces
G6 is at 4%

All in, 48.7% of the current available lot spaces are not in the main tailgating area that has made our Gameday experience what it is and what we are used to. We all knew there would be change but I'm pointing this out for the "we had a net gain of more parking" narrative folks...

This year is not representative of the final parking configuration. So it's not fair to say 49% of the spots won't be available in the "main tailgating area" when this is all done.

But I will say the overall tailgate parking satisfaction will diminish greatly in the new lots due to the change from the current angled parking to planned perpendicular parking. That's where they make up parking spaces to say they aren't losing a lot of parking due to the CYTown construction.

It's a good thing this site didn't exist when the eastern S-lots got paved, or when the practice fields were built on the west side. I can only imagine how much weeping and gnashing of teeth would have occurred then.

Right in the middle of States and my time is 6/22 in the AM
 
Upper third of gold and my selection time is June 15 at 10:45am.

When I was a kid, we always parked in the grass on the west side! That was what I thought was the absolute best parking for folks who sat in what was called the West Stadium back in the 1970s.

Why are you throwing in C1/C2? They have always been a part of tailgating. Whether it was cash paid or donor, very disingenuous and misleading to do that.
 
I just selected parking. I'm toward the end of Captains. I got the same lot as last year, D5 (although it was called D4 last year). When I previewed it about 1:20, there were about 50 spots left. The next row North had about 500 or so spots in the 3 lots.
 
I did ours on Monday, but couldn't see any of the number remaining. The screen also seemed to show either too small or gigantic. Granted, I was sitting in the hall of a hotel at a conference in North Carolina, but was using my regular laptop. We used to be in A3, now in A4. For this year anyway.
