We were given shite the last two times we went for parking our vehicle close to our tailgate spot to unload all the stuff. We had one small trailer and 6 guys and it would have only taken maybe 10-15 minutes to unload. We couldn't even pull into the parking garage close by because we didn't have a parking pass for this area. This was the Friday before mind you, and not game day. It was university employees with badges riding around on golf carts. Completely unreasonable. The day of tailgating is always fun, and the fans are generally pretty cool, sans a few idiots here and there. Expect to sit at your tailgate after the game until traffic clears out, before trying to load your stuff back into your trailer. Even after traffic cleared out the golf cart brigade tried to stop us from pulling close to load everything and rushed us to leave the campus. We ignored them after the game and pulled close anyway, otherwise we would have had to walk a couple miles with tents, tables, pots chairs etc to load them in our trailer. The second golf cart went to the nearest campus police officer who was directing traffic at the time to get him involved, but luckily he was reasonable and allowed us to finish loading, cleaning up our trash and go on our way. One of the better away venues to visit. To be honest, the only real issue was the campus employees on a power trip.
