Just require people to leave when done parking and setting up. I think that would work just fine, but the a-holes who run the place just assume the worst.

I know myself well enough...I can see "setting up" lasting until dawn.(or kick-off) LOL

Dave come on now. YOU know as well as every beer and cocktail swilling guy here that NOBODY is not going to drink and nobody is going to leave until after the game is over unless there are rules saying you cant. But hey that was funny. One of your best yet.:rofl::rofl:

We didn't setup Friday night, simply parked our trailer/pickups. Glorious to just walk in at 8:50 and start setting up. Not having to deal with the lineup south of the dome was 10/10. They also have overnight security setup, which I didn't realize prior. They need to work on the timing though and adjust accordingly for out-of-towners.

We did the same with one vehicle and our trailer but then sat line with another vehicle Saturday morning since we had all the food and such in that. I thought there was fewer people parked early than I expected but the line seemed to move quicker than normal which was hopefully a good sign that getting some of the bigger rigs in early speeds things up. Hopefully more people park early as the season progresses.

Good to hear that they have overnight security there. We didn't feel comfortable setting anything up on Friday but saw that there were some people who did.

This is so funny. You park your stuff on friday but you still have to wait in line Sat to get to your parked stuff? :rofl: Makes no sense to me. Oh well.

Because it's a pain in the butt to maneuver the trailer into our spot when everyone around us is trying to do the same thing. We also have a bunch of vendor vehicles that are parked close to our spot that are always there before the lots open on Saturday and in the way so it was nice to get the trailer into it's spot on Friday when they weren't there.

They provide "overnight security" for Friday night which is why they have to close it up at 7, but yet I see it's officially in the tailgate rules now that you can leave your crap there until Monday at noon with no security.

Hopefully they just get rid of the security component next year and let you park it early whenever as long as you don't break out the beers and meth.

It's unfortunate they don't provide any security during the game out there since that's when everything gets stolen or your vehicle gets backed into.

Surprised you are so confused for someone who always seem to side with the anal retentive rule makers at NDSU and the Fargodome. I sense you were giggling to yourself about how worthless the so called benefit of only being able to park on Friday night.

I believe PL is not in favor of grown adults being able to park their rigs anytime Friday and leave without having an adult beverage. He seems to think everyone is a lush and would not be able to follow the no drinking condition in order to allow more lenient rules on parking (refer to post #12 above).
