Quick drive by update: looks like east lot finished with paving, numbers going down on west lot slots, and some landscaping along Kagy for west lot.

So how are tailgate sports working now? Is it two spots per tailgate?
Glad I’m not the only one wondering about this.

What are considered tailgate spots are 2 spots, rv’s are 4 spots and then there are also single stall parking spots.

Are the lots finished? Im guessing MSU would like to use them on Friday when Trump is at the Fieldhouse.

The paving looks to be done but they're still working on them as of this morning when I went by. The lighting isn't up yet for one thing, so I doubt they're usable yet especially for events that will end when it's dark out.

The posts were up but I didn't see any actual lights on them yet. Entirely possible I missed something.

Typically, the lights on the post will be wired up while it’s laying on the ground. Maybe they’re going to install festoon lighting over the parking lot. I don’t think it would be very functional, but it would really add to the intimate feel of night games!

Is MSU charging for people to park for this event? I think MSU has been paid up front, but I don't know that for sure and I don't know if the payment included parking passes for the attendees.

I guess we'll find out soon enough! I'll let someone else do the spotting this time as I wouldn't get within a mile or two of one of these political rallies held by either side.

The lamps are definitely not attached to the top of the poles at this time.

I understand this frustration. But, to me, we've gotten to park for free for soooo long. Bobcat football games were actually the only event (sporting, concert, etc) that I didnt have to pay parking for. So, yes, frustrating but long overdue. The one positive, I am guaranteed a parking spot no matter what time I show up.

Does anyone know if the standard tailgate spots come with two parking passes? There are two stalls per spot and I have heard conflicting info with some saying two cars can be parked there and others saying it is two stalls but will only allow one vehicle.

I hope it's only one vehicle, otherwise it isn't a "tailgate" spot. It's just reserved parking and that defeats the whole purpose.

My understanding is though that you can park two vehicles or an RV in the RV spots, and only one vehicle in the standard tailgate spots.
