I know that there have been multiple parking threads on here but I have a question for ya.
Last year we shared a couple of spots in the Northstar Lot just across the street from the stadium. My cousin works for the U and the stadium so he got 2 spots for free. We would drop off our tailgating gear and then park about 2 miles away and walk back to the lot to party it up. It was a blast but parking elsewhere and having to deal with all of that sucked balls. I noticed that the spots are going for about $400 plus an annual donation of $1,000 for each spot. This lot was 1/2 full all year but was a good time.
I called the U to ask about the Ski-U-Mah Lot and they said it is the same thing. We would like to get a spot near there but I can't afford $1,400 a year plus my tickets.
With the economy we are in, is it too much to ask the U to drop the fees a little on these spots? Even drop the donation to $500 and possibly fill up the lots instead of having them 1/2 full. (not sure about the Ski-U-Mah lot, didn't spend much time there). Kind of seems like a no brainer to me, but then again, I'm not the smartest guy out there.
