For best pregame walk to the stadium for scenery and tailgates you want to go from the East (Capstone Lot, A, B, Moody and others around there). You'll walk by the quad, presidents mansion, large university halls and other facilities. As noted in another thread we'll be at the Capstone lot. Easier post egress being on that side of BD, and the Newk's next door is convenient when tailgating if any additional food/drink or restroom is needed 

Lots to the West are 'downtown' and will have the big advantage for pregame barhopping. Will be crazy there, just not the traditional tailgating scene the East side gives.

Campus drive West is the parking lot a chose. Freaking expensive $220. Gonna have a grill for wings and a skirt steak. Freaking stoked. 

I want to join you, but also know people will decide last minute to join - there are still spots in lot B available, looks like on game day too. Probably more likely folks will join us there. Capstone looks like a parking garage... may limit the tailgating spread

These Tide fans are serious.   6 pm local time game....  this from @FazaUSF's FB posting:

"Lot will open at 7am; we will be there at 10am to set up."

Will be a great day for football!

I am resisting having a good feeling about covering the spread.

Posted this on ticket thread too, but I have an extra ticket in USF section if anyone is looking.  Selling for what I paid for it.  $65.

Honestly the TSA is communist with their 5 hour rules! Tailgating should start when Gameday starts, no matter what time your game is!

It used to be three!   No money coming in for sitting on their ground. 

Back then, tailgating was fun, but almost a drag.  Get there, get unpacked, get the tv set up, fire up the grill, cook, eat, break everything down (chug a few too), pack it all back in the SUV.  Wipe off the sweat and get into the stadium.  One thing goes astray, you miss game time.
