Post your parking selection day assignments here

so here is a question.. has this whole parking thing become a yearly thing now? will everyone select and then next yr 500 new season ticket holders buy in and displace more people?

or is once this has settled will it be slow attrition again.. you keep what you get until big lot changes happen and/or someone quits paying for a spot and some select few get a chance to elevate to a better lot?

and question number 2, since the deadline to buy up was passed a week ago why wait until june to get this done, everyone knew it was coming so why not just let the first group have at it?

how big are the window increments , are there 100 people at the very top who will be scrambling to get the lots right at the domes foot steps and lose something they have had for 30 yrs?
(1 ) as for as i know this will be the new normal but texanmark has mentioned they may adjust the formula so that new season ticket holders cant jump long timers if in same donor block
(2)probably has to do with getting the information set up on my cuse and they couldnt start to put it in until the 16th
 
So I called my ticket rep regarding SkyTop parking and it looks like the advantage to buying the new season parking pass ($100.00) is to save $20 total over paying individually each game. SkyTop parking costs have risen to $20 per game vs $15 last year.

If you're going to every game it makes sense, if you plan on skipping a game or two, it doesn't.

As far as I know it doesn't guarantee a better spot as it's still first come first serve and you can still park there without a pass so it's strictly about saving a little bit of money.
im assuming then for university and other garages the price per game is $5 higher to 30 so parking pass saves $30
 
It’s a terrIble process. It’s all about $$$$. They’ve lost complete sense of community. Well done, Syracuse.

What would have been a better process?

Telling the 150 big money donors who lost their parking next to the Dome that they're being relocated to Skytop, and everyone else is unchanged?

Maybe we should have just built a new stadium at Skytop in the first place.
 
i think the process is fine but new season ticket holders should not jump existing season ticket holders in same block

May 29 th at 12:44 PM. Hopefully the :44 is a good omen. Been parking in Q3(now Quad) for 20 years
with a awesome tailgate. Would kill me to lose it.

Having to do this yearly is a good process? And in our case, it’s likely displacing some longtime friends who have tailgated together for years, if I’m forced into another lot, this will probably be my last year of supporting the program.

I can’t wait until they do this with season tickets and people who have been in same seats for years are displaced based on donor rank.

If they reduce dome seating at all you know it’s coming.
 
Did not receive an email despite indicating Yes for participation. Have emailed my account rep but this is really fubar.

Your a first day guy, I would be shocked if you don't have your pick of the litter even with SU losing the 130 "premium" spots to construction.

What happens in 4 years when construction is finished and the 180 lost parking spots open back up?

What happens when the Fine lot becomes Floyd Little Hall?

Tailgating isn’t really SU’s thing. They’ll still be trying to get everyone to gather at the Quad.
 
For four years we followed my granddaughter to several rowing regattas in the ACC and elsewhere. At Clemson (a classy place) many many cars had “IPTAY” car stickers which denotes support for athletes. One guy said “for me it means he pays 10k every year.” They have over 16,0000 supporters at various levels and that determines seat -parking etc priorities. We now play with the big boys and we needed to step up our own program. I assume SU athletes studied how best we could do it with the realization that we are a mid size private school not in the hot bed of a booming economy. I also believe they will treat long time supporters as fair as they can. So change is hard but a reality in life. I have 4 season tickets and live four hours away. For me if the product is better (winning) I can adjust.

I remember that idea being shot down 40 years ago. :)
What would the SU campus look like if the Dome were not where it is?

Hmm, $20 per individual game to park a 20-minute bus ride from the Dome?

It's their parking lot, they can do what they want, but that sounds like gouging to me. A little unnecessary, since they have pretty much unlimited inventory up there and relatively fixed costs.

Wait until you spend $15 to park at a LAX game. Unless that's going up to $20 for 2020 as well. :mad:
