You probably haven't tripped over/stepped on/been puked on by aforementioned obstacles. I guess I should watch where I'm walking and steer clear of anybody under the age of 21 who has a certain shade of green to their face !! :lol:
Exactly!

Tailgate Lots:
West lot at Sutton Rd. The BIG tree is GONE and that lot is now more gravel than grass.
East lot(where the Cincy PHC sets up) at Sutton Rd. Lot now has fencing (both wood and wire) around the lot. There is one vehicle entrance off Sutton. Walk-in entrance off Kellogg Rd.
Far East (big grassy lot across from River Downs) is the only remaining grassey lot and remains as it was....except the Bike trail is more prominent.

River Downs is gone as we know it - the only parking is at the admin building. The track is gone as is most of the stables. They have begun construction on the Racino and currenly have 2 levels.

Riverbend parking: No Change.

Coney Parking: No Change. Beware there is no tailgating permitted in the coney lots due to family activity. We parked there and the bicycle cops were on us as soon as we opened our trunk.

I have posted pictures on my FB page here is the link. I have put some description on most of the pictures.

Thanks for the updates and the photos! Question: If we get there too late and get shut out of the grassy or formerly grassy tailgate lots, are there any other tailgating options? I just checked the official Riverbend rules that still say no tailgating. We used to park at River Downs :(

Was at Cincy for Kenny yesterday and they did not open the lot up until 3 even with a long line of cars on Sutton. We arrived early having tailgated there in 2011 & the lots were locked. We asked Coney Island personnel & were told they would open the lots @ 1:45 but they weren't actually opened until 3.

I went down to Riverbend for Chesney tailgate too. I have been to KC tailgates before and the tailgate does not start near as early as for Buffett. As DocPH mentioned the lots did not open until 3pm-ish. I ran the Kellogg stretch 2-3 times just to see how things had changed since I last gave an update and to see how the tailgate was doing. They have leveled much for the ground east of River Downs, it looks like they my be going to pour asphalt soon. Fingers crossed for Buffett. The Racino is now up to 4 levels and starting to extend west. The gi-normous dirt pile is starting to shrink a little.

JW you may want to consider the grassey lot across from the stables/mud lot as backup. The peeps are just as much fun down there. :D

This is what I ran into.

Because the lots did not open early- cars were parked along Sutton road beginning at the overpass and going north. There were two yards allowing peeps to park for a $fee. The side streets were lined. There were cars who misjudged the ditch and went deep. Not pretty.

I did not see any grills or pools but that may be because i really was not looking for them.

The lot across from coney where the Cincy PHC sets up camp (North east side of Kellogg and Sutton) was last to open. There were 4 neat little rows of 25-35 cars. No RVs in that lot.

RV's: the only RVs and Buses I saw went down the road that goes behind the venues - that's where they parked years back. Entrance is next to Washington Marina.

That's all I got. Oh wait, there was a hot dog vendor in the bike trail parking area. LOL.

So we're ditching our campers and rv and renting a bus with about 20 people aboard. I'm used to driving up and getting a spot in the grassy lot across from Riverdowns lot on Kellogg around noon. If we don't get there until 3 pm because of time constraints on the bus what are the odds of having a spot to park and party?

Is there any sort of special area that a bus can go to around Riverbend? I'm just worried that with all the construction we won't have a place to be if we don't get there early. What time do we think the lots are opening that day?
