Parking

[bothsocksup]

Hey guys. Silly question, coming up this weekend. I know some of the parking has changed. Qq where is the best lot(s) to park and should I pre pay for parking. Bringing my 2 little guys with me so an easier walk would be great. Let me know. Thanks!

If you don’t have a parking pass your best bet is parking on the north side of the dome. There’s a parking garage across from Upstate hospital, as well as another garage on S Crouse Ave near Marshall St. Further down the hill, closer to E Genesee St, you can also find some parking if those garages are full.

Additionally from a recent SU email that I received: “Single-game parking for Syracuse Football is available in the Skytop lot for $35 per game. Shuttle service is provided from the Skytop lot to College Place, located near the JMA Wireless Dome. Shuttles will also pick up at College Place after the game and will run continuously before and after the event. ”

Hope this is helpful, enjoy the game!

Being Parents weekend I have no idea...I'd probably shoot for one of the 2 parking garages. If you can find a reasonable price for a pass that is the best

Another option is park downtown and take the shuttle sponsored by Shaughnessy's Pub at the Hotel Syracuse

Syracuse Football Tailgates | Shaughnessy's Irish Pub in Syracuse, NY

Pre-game your favorite orange & blue team 3hrs prior to kickoff!

The one is about 150' south of Varsity Pizza. Cost is $35 IIRC. You could grab a slice or two and walk up to the quad to see the players walk in and the band play

$35 for parking at Skytop is robbery

It's not for everyone but if you can handle a 10-15mins walk, just double check the side street parking down a ways off Euclid and walk.

Ackerman, Lancaster, Maryland etc.

No need for shuttle busses or long wait times after.

do you have an example of what other schools charge to park for football that makes $35 door to almost door robbery? I would agree if they made people walk 2+ miles like I have for WV or LSU and others and still paid more than that.

Parking for sporting events in general is robbery.

It was $20 just two years ago.

They have removed all asphalt and replaced with gravel - made the experience worse and charged more money.

Door to door, sure but the bus experience is poor and operation is a mess. You pay that and it takes and hour to get back post game, is not good service.

I dont think the bus experience is much worse than any other bus experience though, How would you improve it other than have more buses?

I stood in line for the same time at the PGA event at oak hill and many others like it.

I paid more to park at Saratoga this summer

Everyone sees it as easy money and people have other ways to get to the game. Park at destiny and uber in and out. What does that cost?

Its gonna cost you $25 to park at apple festival in tully and you get to park in a field that may require a tow truck to get out

I have a parking pass I can send you. It's in the lot across from Schine student center. Send me a private message with your email address and I will transfer it to you.

The bus service to the game is way better than it used to be. Only problem is waiting in line after the game when the weather is inclement.

Issue is that every year the experience gets worse but costs more.

I have walked back from Dome to Skytop and beat folks in our group that stay in line for the bus by 15 minutes.

For the opener, I left tailgate at 11:30 to pickup my daughter from HS practice and got back to Skytop to jump on bus at 12:15. Had buses backed up past the Inn Complete but had to wait 10 minute with a group of folks waiting for the next scheduled bus to leave since it was after kick.

They do a terrible job and do not operate efficiently yet charge more every year.

I will say, if you need HC parking - it’s a great spot and they do that right.
