Parking at the Vaught

[fevans]

My son and I are heading to the Eggbowl tomorrow. I've never been and am looking for recommendations on where to park. We'd like to walk through the wooded tailgate area as well. We'll probably get there around noon.

Thanks in advance.

LOL

















In all seriousness, try getting to the square early and bite the bullet in one of the lots people will be charging $20-$30 for on the outskirts down Jackson avenue, or if you get there real early check the side streets around the square, or be ready to park somewhere down on university avenue and huff it for 2 miles.

Good luck.

If it were me

I'd park at the pay lot, at the intersection of Hwy 278/6, and Old Taylor Road/Univ. Plaz. (Immediately left after getting off Hwy 6)
Best to enter from East side on Hwy 6.

Shortish walk up the hill to VH. (can trolley). I've done so many a time.

The Grove and Circle are North of the stadium...but it's not far.

Look at a aerial view map.

Go Dogs!

I was under the impression this lot was for parking passes (I've never needed to use it), but if it is open to everyone it is without a doubt the best way to go. Probably 3/10 a mile from the stadium, at most.

Could possibly be, now

but otherwise, I've parked there many a year.

It is parking passes now...we parked there for years and now just park on the south side of this bypass.

Park at oxford high and take the shuttle for $5 a person. It's the easiest way to do it.

I always park at first baptist oxford.

If we win you'll either get kicked down the stairs by security or go to jail.
And dont go to the grove expecting hospitality

This sounds really good. Go incognito. It is safer that way.

Park at 2nd baptist church on Jackson for $20.

Hey I know of some Ole Miss guys that saved some spots in the Grove last night. Look out for these guys. Say you're from SixPack I'm sure they'll welcome you in.

Megabus dropped me off right there when I saw STS9 @ the lyric back in '14. Real good spot. Nice little walk up the hill and you're there, won't have to walk through the wooded main tailgate area afterward either.

Thanks for all the replies. Ended up parking at first baptist church for 30 quid. More than I wanted to pay, but it allowed us to eat downtown and still have easy access to the stadium. As much as it pains me to say, oxfart is a pretty nice little hamlet. Everyone was pretty nice to us also.
