Hey everyone... I am going to be making the trip to Kalamazoo for the game. I always try to take my Dad to a game every year... we missed last year so we are looking forward to a great game day experience.

Ended up last home CMU game in a student tail gate lot... it was CRAZY... we had fun with the group we traveled down with.. but are looking for a more subdued tail gate experience this year...

What lot's do you recommend? Would love to catch up with some of you guys if possible... Looking forward to a great game on a great day at Waldo!

We usually use lot.. 3? i think? the one between the track and the rec center. It's usually pretty busy but not utter insanity. Mostly parents and families. My parents are bringing their motorhome there for this saturday.

I think I might shoot for lot#88. I will probably try to get there a couple hours before kickoff... hopefully there is space.

Lot 1 and Lot 88 are my recommendations.

Go over in the trees west of Lot 88 towards the insane asylum. The lot at the new nursing school is pretty low key also. The lot at the baseball field isn't nuts either, but fills early. Lot 88 used to be family friendly, but got a little crazier over time.

Lot 88 is the place to be.

Which ever lot is the nursing thing is the one I am in and totally family friendly other than the moron workers. But we shall see if the complaint and stuff has helped.

Yep lot 88 is where we will be it's a ***** of a walk but a good place to tailgate , without all the crazies but a good blend of people. Tito's on the house and plenty of great food !!

Looks like we'll be in lot 43, but I DO want to do 88 and bump into a few of you before the year is out.

Most seem to love Lot 88, but we've always ended up under the trees next to Lot 43.

That's where we'll be on Saturday.

I just got my tickets from fed ex today. Fired up. I have in the past parked up by the student center, in meter parking, which doesnt require $ on weekends. Is that still the case? We like the spot. Bathrooms handy.

Parking meters? Come on, don't you guys have a secret handshake that gets you out of all motor vehicle violations?

I could tell you.........but i would have to kill you.

I've often wondered if we should come up with a Bronco Stampede signal that we can give in case brovol is presiding over a court case of ours. Flash that and everything will start going your way.

Nobody knows who he is, so you'll have to do it for every court case though....

I talk too much on this board. Wouldn’t take much to figure out exactly who I am. .....but I love you all.......especially Charm, because I always feel smarter after I debate him on any subject.

Online harassment is turning up in courts a lot these days. I'm not seeing a big upside to upsetting a member of the law enforcement community on a web board. That's why I always refer to Brovol as Sir.

Lot 13 is what i meant...

Oh, kind of like a bat signal! Bring a flashlight and a piece of cardboard, and some scissors...

Now that sounds like something that will get you held in contempt of court.
