11Arrington56 Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 I got cash lot parking the last two years and finally realized that you had to submit a request to finally get "real" parking. It just ticks me off that there are passes for sale already on Ebay, Stubhub, etc and I have four season tickets and have to ride that shuttle bus which takes forever after the game. Anybody recently had any luck acquiring parking from the Skins? Any tips? I imagine requesting green parking would be the best chance of getting any "real" parking. Thanks to this board I got a great seat upgrade, hoping to get some help on the parking end. :point2sky :helmet: :point2sky :helmet: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mania Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 I submit a request for a parking pass last year also, but I'm still on the waiting list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joe Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 when fedex first opened, there were parking passes available. The waiting list is a fairly recent thing, so I don't think anyone could know how quickly it will move. Have you checked into parking at the Jericho church? I think those are "blue" lot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwebst1 Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 I came off the wait list last year and was lucky enough to also get a "blue" parking pass... thanks in large part to someone on this board. Maybe it's just me, but parking 8 miles away, then taking a shuttle bus, takes a little bit away from experience. I would call the Skins and see what they can do.

Mark The Homer Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 I just paid an invoice last week, and confirmed I was still on the list for green parking. The guy confirmed with me that I was on the waiting list and that the waiting list for green parking would be about one hundred years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
budski Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 You mean to tell me that when you finally get season tickets the parking pass doesnt come with them??? or at least the chance to purchase the pass? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
11Arrington56 Posted June 16, 2005 Author Share Posted June 16, 2005 For example: On Stubhub.com... One guy/business is selling eight green lot passes to every game for $79 for each game. So for all ten games it would cost me a whopping $790 for green lot parking for all ten games. To put that in perspective each one of my guys paid $727 for ten tickets and a fourth of a cash lot pass. Here's hoping the Skins can crack down on this garbage. It just ticks me off. I don't mind the bus to the game, but after, about an hour til I get to my car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you call a stadium in the middle of nowhere fan-friendly? How about the parking situation and how no one can get within a mile of the stadium without paying at least 5 bucks? What about the strip search for peanuts in your pockets? What about the obstructed view seats? Has he built a 92k stadium, which has allowed me and other fans to get tickets, yes........ but do you really think he did that for the fans... he does everything for money.

HOF44 Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 Snyder is about maximizing income, but you can't blame him for the stadium location or parking situtation. That was all on Jack Kent Cooke. 44HOF Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChocolateCitySkin Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 Raljohn MD is not something you can blame on D. Snyder... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocky21 Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 I love Snyder bashing but we can't blame the stadium location on him. That was JKC. But the price of parking...that's another story. Budski, That's right. When you get your tix they do not include the parking passes. That is another waiting list. Parking is currently sold out. You can take the Metro or do the cash parking / shuttle buses thang. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
budski Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 rocky21, Thanks, kinda takes the air out of my balloon. Know how long it takes for parking passes? 10....20 years what? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocky21 Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 Sorry no clue. There are alternatives. Check this site out, DC papers, Ebay. Season tickets are expensive but worth it when they're all yours. Hope your number comes up soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwebst1 Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 Originally posted by ChocolateCitySkin Raljohn MD is not something you can blame on D. Snyder... agreed... I apologize... that was definitely not his fault. I just get frustrated over the whole thing because the I've had at other stadiums, like Giants Stadium, Ravens Stadium, even Buffalo, have been so much better and more fan friendly. I understand it's a business, but come on...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
