    Default Reserved tailgating lines

    Ever since they expanded the reserved tailgating lot, the wait times have gone up. Saturday was the worst yet.

    Is there anything we can do to make the line move faster?

    Yes. Simple solution. Sell "premium access" to get in the night before. The extra funds could be used to pay for the extra security to watch law abiding adults have fun.

    It would be cool but that would require a ton of planning and coordination for this season. Reprinting passes. Collecting money. Making sure the done doesnt have some conflicts Friday. Needing more portable bathrooms because they would fill up overnight.

    I'm talking about this season and the next home game. I think they need more time since we have more reserved spots now. Even 10 minutes early would make a huge difference

    Simple. Two lines. One for east side, one for west side.

    Don’t they have an entrance on the north east side?
    Then north for north reserved, main for south. Either way two lines.
    I like to surround myself with people who share in my inappropriate comments, sarcasm, and random shenanigans

    It's just one giant line for a reserved on the west side and a separate line for the general admission which is half the size it used to be.

    A buddy of mine got into the GA lot the same time as our reserved group and it opens a half hour later.

    They are trying to have 1 line do the work of 2 lines now .

    The easy solution is to get the line moving 10 minutes early. Doesnt even have to be officially 10 minutes early just do it. But god forbid a grown man might crack open a beer 10 minutes early

    Without a permit, opening a beer should not be allowed

    Allow trailers to be dropped off the night before. RVs and vehicles still line up and no one allowed into the lot until 5.5 hours before as usual.

    What happened with the whole recycling thing? It appears that was botched. Wouldn't the smartest way to hand out the "special bags" been to distribute them while all those people were waiting in line? #endplasticcupsnow

    Also didn't appreciate not being notified that there was an option to get your passes Saturday morning... The printer will collate that stuff and have them ready for shipping. Work it into the cost of the spots. (Or up GA tailgate spot prices to pay for it)
