It's been a long time since I've tailgated for a Purdue game. I plan on taking the family up for Saturday's game. Where can I park to tailgate? I don't have any sort of pass. Thanks in advance!
Question for parking/tailgating
- Thread starter hunkgolden
- Start date
Without a pass, you can usually park in a few houses and (1) fraternity right across from Mackey Arena. It is reasonably close. Usually around $15-20.
Are those lots big enough to tailgate? As in bring cornhole boards, table for eating, chairs, etc?
Yup. Get there early and then make your spread known. I don't think there is 'assigned' parking there as long as it is kept to a reasonable space.
You can also pay $15-20 to park at frats in Tower Acres (top of Slater Hill) - 10-15 minute walk to the stadium at most. Welcome back!
"Fans parking in the pay lots on the IM Gold fields, IM Black and IM North fields can pay $20 cash on gameday."

What time do the donor lots open? 8:00 AM or 8 hours before kickoff? Thanks.
