I am a Captains level donor that has always parked below my donation level in G7 notably because of it being a grass lot.

With the conversion of G7 to RV parking, I need to find a new lot. I’m not sure any spots in the first row of concrete parking lots (A4,B6,C6,D4) will be available when my selection comes up, but there certainly will be in the next row of lots (A3,B5,C5,D3). I could also drop down to a lower donation level lot as well. For reference, I sit on the east side of the stadium.

What lot should I choose especially if I’d like to find a plot of grass in front of the car? Best lot to ensure a quick exit? I’ve considered dropping all the way down to parking around Hilton due to the ease of exit. We parked there in 2020 during the pandemic. Obviously, it’s a lot longer walk.

D3 would have grass next to University Blvd. it also has an exit to University heading south to US 30.

G6 if you liked g7. Grass all around. Go with the small lot A1? By CY and you will have a decent amount there and can shoot off onto the roads right there.
 
If you're considering parking up by Hilton for ease of access, D1 would also be a fine option. There's lots of extra space, either between the north side of the lot and Center Drive, or between the east side of the lot and University Blvd, assuming you arrive early enough. And very easy to get out, going north or south.
 
Please park in a lot at the Captains level! For those of us at lower levels I continue to get worse parking options and pray I can still get into the same lot as last year.

Edit - now see you mean lots no rows within lots

Spots are not assigned. There is no claiming first row. All lots are first come first serve on GameDay except for the S lots which are reserved

This Is how I read it too and had that response typed out, but believe the poster is referring to row of lots, not row of a specific lot (if that makes sense).
