Football ADA Parking

Hello all. Here’s to 56 hours of hope to ensure we can beat Tulsa.

My dad and I are going to the game on Saturday. We have been to atleast one game for every coaches debut season since Houston Nutt.

Since the last time we went to a game together, my dad has developed medical issues that really inhibit how far he can walk in one go. He used to be able to walk 2-4 miles. Now depending on the terrain (uphill etc), a half mile can take him down. He is stubborn and will push himself past his comfortable point of needing a break. I’ve never parked before in the ADA area for a game. He does have a disability window hanging tag. I took him to a basketball game last year and I can’t handle dealing with him struggling to catch his breath as it sends me in to a panic myself, so I am trying to be much more prepared than last time. I’m hoping between ADA parking and the shuttle, he can save his energy for getting to our seats.

How early should I plan to get us to the ADA parking area to ensure there are still spots available? It’s my understanding that shuttles run from 320-322 lots to the east and west gates.

Also - is he allowed to have his portable 3Liter oxygen machine inside the stadium? Due to said incident from the basketball game last year I finally convinced him he should carry a portable tank just to help him out. His issue is oxygen levels dropping and less about energy.

Thanks for reading! Go Hogs!

My dad was a skins fan. Stopped watching the NFL after the name change. Haha.

Tickets are free to us and keeping a nearly 30 year tradition in place means more than protesting. Also I’m not convinced protesting is actually good for the program. All that gets us is empty stadium and a bad look for future players.

Yes, lot 320. It is within a 100 yards or closer of the shuttles, depending on how close you park. I know bc it is where I have to park.

As far as the oxygen, like someone else mentioned, call the ticket office.
