Just curious. . .
On Thursday those of us who got there just as the lot opened (lots of clubs included) were shunted to Lot 13, as far away as you can get. It ended up being OK as when we walked the other lots there was pretty much nothing going on and our lot was rocking, AND got a visit from Nadirah, Doyle and Uncle Jim.
On Saturday, same thing only this time we had about 15 cars, all with tags showing we were together, got there early, pushed to Lot 13 but halfway through our group they started putting people in Lot 12. When we complained they said "Traffic is backing up we have to open that lot" Which made NO sense because there were already cars in that lot but they had closed it and were still sending people to Lot 13. The folks going to 13 were at a standstill so we just opened our trunks and started unloading our stuff by the BNers already in 12. They were p*ssed but there was nothing they could do. For 2 hours they didn't put ANYONE ELSE in Lot 12 but kept trying to load Lot 13. We took up 4 spaces behind the cars parked there, so again, it turned out OK but was really a pain to drag our stuff back to our cars.
idiots. Plus Lot 13 only had one port o potty. Clearly they want to extract $40 per car for people who want to party together, not bloody likely.
