I hope one of you will upload video of visitors coming to campus looking for parking.

Wide screen TV, surround sound vs the expense and aggravation of going to a live game

I always try to go to one game a year for the campus feel, but it’s getting harder and harder to buy the tickets each year. Probably as my kid get older and to the age to actually sit and enjoy a game, I’ll be more inclined to go but right now that’s not the case.

It’s harder to have a “campus” feel when you can’t park on campus. You can’t tailgate near stadium unless you pay for the generica tailgate experience.

It’s not the Auburn home game of 1973- my first time in the stadium.

I have reached that point over the past 3 years. Especially now that I have retired. Kids grown, tailgate guys, hassle, etc.
Just been lucky to have lived 30 miles from the place and could go on Fridays and Sat mornings early. It last damn near 48 years as my parents parked in front of Swingle Hall first time in 1974 for the Auburn vs Georgia game.bOld Auburn Road was only way Columbus to Auburn. Traffic backed up halfway to Columbus!!!!
However like many of you on here who go, after investing so many years in this program and now with the potential sucess it's hard to break away.
Question for everyone please.
There are parking passes available through the 3rd parties, naturally at an increased price. My question...Would someone buy up all the tickets or would the university release them to the 3rd parties for a set price?
Tiger Transit it is!

University partners with a 3rd party vendor. They work hand in hand

They've been running the fans off campus for a couple of decades now. I think they would prefer if everyone just sent in money and stayed the hell away from their campus.

25 years ago I told my tailgate group that one day we would probably have to park near the truck stop at I 85 and Wire Road and catch a bus to the stadium.

I got a lot of laughs from the group.

It's not even close to the AU home game of 2003.

I got my parking pass for the Mississippi State game today.

Sorry I can't fret with the poors anymore.

Season parking passes available at Auburn United Methodist Church for $333. Can also get individual game parking.

https://www.aumc.net/gameday/

ETA: You can also reserve in advance on the ParkMobile app for the Burton Street parking garage (Auburn Bank garage) for $44/game. Looks like all games are available.

Also season parking available through the “tailgate mafia” https://revelxp.com/auburn-parking?selectedEvent=2415

I'm also curious of what years at Auburn. I was 1987-91.
