I get it and like tailgating as much as the next guy, but there was one incident at SU that pushed me over the edge and irritated the heck out of me (and continues to do so).  I was commuter student and paid my $275/semester parking fee (or whatever it was) and I had to pay [B]another[/B] $20 one night to park just so I could go to a physics lab that coincided with a mid-week basketball game.  [I]To make money off o[/I] their football team they need n[I]on-university fans[/I].  But it's give and take and they make money, so there is going to be compromise.  Having a giant sports arena and many parking lots to fleece a bunch of non-students from the 'burbs isn't the core mission of the university.   Like I said, I don't mind waiting in the traffic when I park up there, but I generally park and ride to most games.

There'll be enough traffic if I demolish all the parking lots around the dome and replace them with buildings. MUAUAHHAHA

Seriously, tho, trains on someone else's tracks are worthless and a giant pain for everyone involved.  I work not far from the tracks downtown and would love to be able to hop a train after work to games.  But there's a bus from the Hotel Syracuse, too, I think, but that might be limited.
