FYI for those of you looking at tailgating in Lot 34. Just last week the entire lot was paved over (much needed, as a law student who parks there regularly I was getting scared that I was going to lose my car in one of the potholes). The entire thing is blacktop now. Parking spaces and drive area. No more gravel parking spaces with paved (if you could even call it that before) drive.
confirmed. this is where im going to be going bright and early to tailgate. So far no other lot has really sparked my interest.
Someone suggested earlier in the thread that lot 34 seems to have a lot of grass areas on the perimeter....which will be a necessity if you have a tent. Can anyone else confirm this? If so, this might be the place to be.I'd still love to see a "tailgate city" across all of that grassland area by the old softball complex.

There is some grass in the area. The closest is a small strip that seperates the parking lot from the main walkway going through campus. It wouldn't be big enough for many tents/tailgaters, but a few could fit on there. There is also some grassy areas around the Polymer Science building which is not too far away.

Yea, I'm getting very concerned where I'll tailgate. It seems that since Schrank won't be available, I'll likely be joining everyone in lot 34 bright and early. I still would like to tailgate outside the Rifle Range so we can cheer on the Rifle team if they have a Match on Gameday. I also don't want to pay extra for a special lot. Indeed, it looks like UofA is dropping the ball here....

You know, we have a great opportunity here to create one hell of a tailgating lot. Parking is going to be chaos on Sept. 12th, and everyone here seems to be thinking ahead. We all get there early, and we set the tone. Grass will be at a premium, but we won't be that far away from the practice field. Is there anything we can think of to make Akron tailgating different from the rest? I'm hoping that the band will march through campus before the game to the stadium. If there are enough of us at lot 34, what are the chances that we could get the band to start their march there? Maybe we have all the people with flagpoles park along one edge of the lot? Maybe the Oldies set up in one area and the students in another area? Maybe we purchase a couple of extra spots and setup a cornhole tournament location. I don't know, just thinking here....
