        Re: Parking

        Ok. Normally don't mind the parking issue. But stuck at a stand still now and that isn't the problem. I can wait in the name of a sold out McLeod. The problem is that the flow in which they are directing cars makes ZERO sense. Seeing a lot of frustrated drivers. Yeah... we might need to address this.
        "...the Northern Iowa men's basketball team reached the ultimate highs before hitting a devastating low. Unexpected success, followed by unimaginable failure. And they owned it -- all of it -- for the world to see. Like men. Like leaders. Like champions -- in a way no tournament bracket could ever define."

          Last home game we noticed a very bizarre flow to exiting. Like entire front row first etc. Works better to alternate if people cooperate.

            It's stupid, but the point was made and I park somewhere I can walk to my car and leave.

              Call the CFPD. They're in total control of this.

                We had parked in the same area in the South Mcleod lot for like 8 years. Until this year with the ridiculous parking flow they have created. I started parking East of Hudson and it takes 10 sec to get out of the lot.

                Pretty stupid that they have created a problem for no apparent reason.

                  Typical CFPD, and I'm sure they're well aware of the jams it's caused because they're out there directing traffic. They won't change it because they don't have to.

                    They really need to get some people actually managing the parking lots and not just sitting in vehicles. Some idiots parked at the ends of the rows in the SW lot so people were trapped until they moved. It's amazing what some people will do to save a few steps and to hell with everyone else. With the great season, you don't want to turn off potential new fans with amateur stuff like this. No reason this can't be managed better.

                      Glad we didn't have any close games at home. About 1/4 of the crowd left with 4-5 mins left because of the parking situation. It's been that way the last few games. We stayed through the seniors talking and a while after that and there was still quite a bit of traffic left.

                        Re: Parking

                        All it would take to get it fixed is putting Dannen and the CF police chief in a car in that C parking lot after a sold out game. They would quickly realize that there is something wrong and try to fix it and realize how unsafe it is sometimes. Like others have been saying, I've always thought the traffic flow the CFPD uses was dumb but they must have changed something this year because it has been terrible. Even at the games that aren't sold out it's bad. I went to Saturday's game and decided to park in the CP log in the quads parking lot. Pregnant wife wasn't happy walking that far but she was happy when we didn't have to sit in the C parking lot by Mcleod for 45 minutes to get out like we did last time we were at a game. I've been to professional baseball and football games with well over 20,000-30,000 people trying to get out of a parking lot and it's much quicker than UNI basketball. I will continue to come to games because I am an Alum and love UNI athletics but there are people that take their kids to the game once in awhile that don't really follow the team that might be turned off by an issue like this. Please get it fixed CFPD and Dannen.

                          Only at UNI would they take at perfectly good parking arrangement and muck it up.

                            Probably talking at a maximum 1500 cars and it takes 30 to 45 minutes to get out of the south lot. Should sell beer in the parking lot if they can't figure it out.

                                No, because by the time you were able to get out of the lot you'd be sober again!
