I'll be there with 2 others!

I'd love to make it but there's no way I can on Friday. If it was Saturday I'd be coming and bringing 3 with me.

+3

Do they usually open up parking early enough to allow tailgating for the spring game?

There's not really any "official" parking. Peters Park deck is open on a first-come basis. Otherwise, I think we're on our own.

I won't end up making it this year.

AJC said 8.5K last year...anyone know our record? Tigers averaged abt 55K past 3 years , would be awesome for us to go above half ...

I would imagine the record is somewhere around 20K. Even when I was in school in the 60s, nobody went to the spring games.

IIRC, there were close to 15k at the 2013 spring game.

It will be highly dependent on weather as usual. A cold rainy Friday night like the past few kills a crowd

I really don't remember, but that's still not very many.

I think it's completely asinine when schools tout their spring game attendance

This!

They have never counted people going in at any spring game I've been to. Attendance numbers are estimates. There is no way of knowing what the official record really is. Would not be surprised if the attendance this year is an unofficial record. Would probably get more in for a Saturday game, but that could cause others to miss the game as well.

I'll be there with at least 2 others. First timers

Last year Peter's and Kause were promoted as free parking locations. Peter's was full over an hour before kick and traffic direction was awful. Unless you are super early don't bother trying for Peter's.

Got an email today, and parking is listed there in Kause and the Student Center. No mention of Peter's Park.

Did they mention if the shuttles will be running? Whether I come or not will probably depend on that. I've had both knees replaced, but I wouldn't relish the walk.

Would probably be good for the narrative if we set a school spring game attendance record even though I think it's completely asinine when schools tout their spring game attendance/other teams' lack thereof as a measure of success.

Dude, it’s one of Georgia’s National Championships, in addition to the Pre-season Poll National Championship, The Fulmer Cup National Championship, the Pre-Season Expectation National Championship and the Recruiting Class Ranking National Championship. They probably even make trophies that state Sprong Attendance National Champions.

seems like most of spring games past 5,6 years were bad weather games. But I am looking for my cell phone that I put down a couple of minutes ago

No mention of shuttles. I too have a potential problem with long walks. I'm wondering if Peters Park will not be available at all; sure can't imagine why it wouldn't be.
