    I've never paid for parking since Xavier moved from the Gardens and there are some great spots to park around the main campus. And yes, now that FC Cincinnati is in the MLS the price increase will be substantial.

    They have an issue festering with the handicap parking spots. This year they only allocated 24 spots near the arena. If you get there after those are gone, they park you in section R out in the middle of Norwood. I don’t know if they sold more passes or what happened to displace all the handicap spots, but people are not happy with the situation.

    What am I missing?
    Cintas has been opened for 18 years. It still seats about the same # of people.
    One would think with that much practice, there shouldn't be any parking issues, parking pass issues, etc.
    They've had a lot of practice with the logistics. To still not have it completely sorted out seems weird.
    ...he went up late, and I was already up there.

    So I have a question - when is the "safe date" to pay for tickets/seat donations so that you get the correct pass for next year? I don't want to pay too early for next year and have it count for this season.

    Campus changes almost every year with buildings torn down, buildings added, new roads. Plus parking used to be included in the ticket price but is now extra.

    I believe that year runs July - June. You can call the All For One office, or maybe the ticket office to verify this.

    I agree. Saw an older woman struggling to push a man in a wheel chair and another man walking poorly with a cane from the R section yesterday. Quite a hike to the front door. Not a pretty sight.

    You can park for 5 bucks and its a 5 minute walk to the Cintas. The parking options are easy and plentiful. I'm not sure outside of the handicap parking spots what people are complaining about? Add to that, you can get onto the freeway in less than 10 minutes after the game.

    I usually park in that $5 lot and it's pretty easy to get in and out of. I like parking there way more than the Family Dollar lot or whatever it's called.
