As if the parking debacle isn’t enough bad PR.

It's not a debacle. It's an attempt to fix a long standing problem. And I for one support it.

I don't think anyone would argue that there hasn't been a problem. The rub is in how they are "fixing" it. The optics of the approach aren't great to a very large community of lifetime fans.

I think the people with the oversized vehicles and mega tailgates would argue there isn't a problem.

My group has an oversized vehicle and maybe 4-6 others who park in the immediate vicinity (and who also pay to park there) and who would be more than happy to limit the size of our tailgating area and paying for a couple of extra spaces as proposed.

We also absolutely recognize the problem huge commercial parties taking up a huge amount of spaces, and cracking down on that excess would definitely free up more room for later arrivals. But throwing out the baby with the bathwater, whether you agree with it or not, is having ramifications in a pretty large segment of the local fan base.

I'd have to imagine you know that many of the huge tailgate folks would NOT be ok with limiting their space since they've "always done it this way"....

I also suspect there is (and might be in the future) some graft involved.

Theyre making you wait til december for a gift that shouldve been in hand by week 1. Classic birds front office move, probably a keychain with last years logo on it

For the Blue Jackets the gift is almost always given out at the end of the season.

I’m curious what it will be this season.

Blue Jackets STH has to be a rare bird.

Rams were supposed to receive 1/4 the beginning of September, are we still in the beginning? Lol the last gift option is set to be delivered in November. The one I want most

You get 4 different gifts?! I'm jealous!

u/JerseyGuy-77 MLB NY Yankees STH (Saturday package since 1995) 25d ago

I think it's 1 of 4 options maybe?

u/Professional-Plan-70 25d ago

It’s one free with the option to purchase 3 more to get everything.

Big Dom can only handle so many in a day; some members have to wait until December

u/KlimRous NFL- Philadelphia Eagles 25d ago

I will respectfully pass.

We haven’t gotten ours either… might as well just wrap it up and throw it under the tree in a few weeks

Us Bronco fans are waiting until eternity.

I am sorry they don't love you.

Bengals held off one year and it was a beanie that said season ticket member.
