Hi ,

What is the parking situation on fan appreciation day? Can we park in the lots near the stadium? If not-what would be the best place.

Tailgate was fun yesterday, and the weather was great!

How many people showed up Dom? A lot of people stay for the weekend?

I'd have loved to have gone but I was still involved in moving stuff...

None from this site. We had quite a few from SN, and SA come down. We had a group of 20 of us I'd say.
