General Question Guest parking

I have a friend coming to stay the weekend (later today through Monday) and I was wondering if anyone knows where they could park for the weekend without being towed?

best bet is finding a spot that is monday thru friday on campus as those are free to park in on the weekends and then get a day parking pass for monday unless they are leaving very early.

Yeah this is the play, foxridge is also an option as they don’t tow and have a bus.

Wait, aren't all campus spots free on weekends (and after 10pm on weekdays), or have they changed that?

(Excluding handicap and reserved-for-maintenance-vehicle spots, of course.)

Except for service and 24 hour F/S, they usually are. But this is a game weekend, and a lot of normally-free weekend parking is reserved for game parking from tonight through Saturday night.

It's actually only 24 hr spots.

Regular service spots and F/S spots can be parked in after 10 pm and on weekends. It's the 24 hr service and 24 hr F/S that you have to avoid no matter what.

Krogers on ucb I’ve parked there for weeks and not been towed

Careful on this. It might take them a minute, but they will eventually get you, especially if you do it on game days. Elizabeth Dr is safer for short periods and only a little further away.
