Message: [QUOTE="CL82, post: 5026882, member: 44"] It's been talked about a lot, and I suspect most people know what the sites are, but since you asked for a map:[ATTACH type="full" width="617px" alt="IMG_6140.jpeg"]101622[/ATTACH] See the map above. There is more than enough room for "parking for 40,000+" at any of the sites. The vast majority of college football stadiums across the country don't have limited access highways that end up at the front gate. The notion that the state of Connecticut needs to undergo a massive infrastructure project for six weekends a year (occasionally, seven, apparently) is silly. Tailgating will feather the traffic coming in and out of the stadium, just as it does for the vast majority of colleges that play football across the country. Similarly, intelligent traffic management goes along way to moving people out at the end of games. For example, Rutgers uses police to give exiting traffic the right of way and selectively changes roads to one way in order to facilitate emptying their stadium. i'm fairly confident if you "tailgate in Storrs for 3+ hours" you won't be sitting in traffic either. That's kind of the point. [/QUOTE]
