wait...I just thought you parked in that lot with your pass...you have assigned parking in that lot? so we can't all go in together and park together?

yea....exactly....

That's why I am not sure we could use the extra pass as a TG area...I'm scared that the parking people would park another vehicle right in there beside ya'........someone correct me if I am wrong....

Actually, I would say with the row/seat you have a better possibility of utilizing the space any way you want. You rented THAT space, didn't mean you would use it for a car.
Now, when you go inside, I am sure they could sell it if they want, but you're done anyway.

I just thought of something. Are we all in Section Park2? I am.

I'm looking to trade you a parking space so we can trade out and make our tailgate party work a little more better. I have 24 and 27...and one of these parking spots is NOT going to be used for parking. It will be used for tailgating. Anyone..?
I have spot 26 and would be happy to trade with you. I'm having my pass mailed to me, so its not in hand yet.

AWESOME!!...thanks man.
As soon as we have them in hand, we will work the trade out.

Now we just need to make sure that anyone can walk through that area if they want to.

Trade it when you get there. We seem to have that whole area blocked off with BN'ers. I don't think it will be an issue.

The premier parking area is not fenced off. There will be no problem with walking into the lot.

See now I'm kind of wondering if they hold a specific spot for you or do they just need to print the spot to track them? This presents a dilemna for tailgating. If I am set up in 23 but 22 and 24 arrive late, how do I set up allowing for them to pull up later?

You are quiet correct!!.
I own 2 spots, so I know we will be able to plan setup in that extra spot.. and thanks to my new friend "gumbo"

, I will now be able to park next to that TG spot. If we are all blocking together at the hotel, a few of us could ride together from the hotel rather than actually using our parking spots, and we could have 3-4 parking areas open for TGing...where's my super kewl smiley...?.....

This is all assuming that there are actual parking spots with these "seating" numbers on them.
Anyone in the Charlotte area that can run over there and check this out????
The parking map is on livenation, so you will be able to see exactly where we will be parking. Just print it out and take it with you.
You could gain "hero" status if you could do it for us

I'm thinking you probably just need the pass to get into the lot itself. Then you park wherever you want. Otherwise, they'd have to have someone walk alongside your car to the exact spot and park you. Seems really inefficient. To set up an area, I'd just recommend parking your car off a little ways from most other cars in the lot, jumping out, and putting a tent in the spot next to yours. Then when the parking people come by, you can show them your extra pass for that spot.

I will absolutely do that - if that's how it all works.
BUT...I am hoping we actually have assigned parking spots...that way we know for fact that other BNers are parked in a block, and we can all kinda keep an eye out for each others vehicles, and the TG party could then easily be stretched out 4 or 5 parking spaces.

I am going to get the answer to this question today, and we will know for sure.

Yikes.. another nail bitter Z

z-parrothead · Post by **z-parrothead** » March 16, 2008 1:57 pm

ok..I'm going to use one of my parking tickets as an example....on the ticket, it says that I am parking in: parking section 2, Row1, and Seat #24
Obviously seat # being parking space # in this scenario.
In the fine print, it says some to the effect of "this ticket can only be used for the event in which it is intended, and for the seat # (parking spot) in which it is assigned.
Soooooooo...I am guessing that in the parking space, it has a # on a post or painted on the space itself....which would mean we do in-fact have a specific parking spot.
If that scenario is true, it will make our TG party "that much more better" (channeling some jack sparrow)

I don't know.. I wouldn't be surprised if we went into OT! Just hope it's not a triple OT like the last time!

z-parrothead · Post by **z-parrothead** » March 16, 2008 2:02 pm

with my livenation parking ticket, I get a "complimentary 2 day, 2 night Vegas Getaway".
Whats the catch..?...do you have to sit through a time-share thing..?
Has anyone ever done that?
I am single now, so pretending I am interested in a time share thing may not be as hard to do.

I cant do another OT....the last time we went through that, I went ahead and canceled my scheduled DR. office stress test. I figure thats as stressful as it would ever get, and it looks like the ole' ticker is ok

I just don't understand why we struggle against this team so much!

As far as your livenation vegas question.. no clue!
