Jawja Fans: Parking in Athens

for the games. I need info. I know there are parking decks, etc, for away fans but I want a parking spot so we can tailgate. Do they allow parking on campus for free? Isn't it a first-come first-serve deal? I know there are pay lots on Baxter Street, but I'm thinking we'll arrive early enough to find a spot on campus.
TIA
TIA

First cone first serve. I'd try going early to East Campus Village and park there

Stay the hell out of their parking decks. Took us damn near two hours to get out of one the last time I went.

That's why I'm avoiding those
How close is that to Sanford?

Not far at all but they have a bus stop righ there shuttling you to there. Post game I'd just walk back and that's like 15-20 min max walk

Awesome. We are probably arriving around 9:30 AM Saturday morning. Is that early enough to find a good spot?

May wanna try a little earlier but you may find something

I have a crowd of 10 going so it'll take all I have to get them up and outta Columbia at 7 AM, but I'll do my best. Thanks again!

QCC, I didn't see the time you posted. IMO, that's early enough. Now, you may be able to park on River Road, otherwise, the parking area behind the ATO house should be OK (I have no idea what they charge now).

To simply park, you could probably show up by 11 and be fine. But if you want to have a full tailgate set up, then yeah, you'll need to get there about 7 or so

Yea, we're wanting to tailgate. I'll try River Road and if I don't get anything then we'll drive through campus and park at a pay lot on Baxter, I guess.

I park in a free lot that is relatively close to campus. It's small so not many people park there, and I get there at about 6:45 to be sure I get it. But it's great, probably the closest free lot on campus. If they ever shut that spot down I'm in trouble.

River Road is below, the parking is above. I forgot what that area is called, I always called it River Road parking?¡??
It's East Campus parking.
