College sports... worse I've been to is Cal Berkeley. No stadium parking so ya park in neighborhoods, other schools fields or best one-frat houses. Getting in stadium is  even worse. Old old old and not much room in walkways. Packed like sardines if it's raining there. Also dealing with whatever the new in "protest" is at the time.

Building a stadium with no parking lot.

Pretty damn dumb.

Love Alabama's Bryant Denny Stadium, but NO parking lot. Have to park all over that part of town ( although we do have a little secret parking area that we keep to ourselves... :) ). Schools, streets, etc. And of course, everybody is charging $$$ to park. Its that way with several college stadiums. Back in the day, the colleges expanded around the stadiums, and by the time football became what it is today, no room for parking lots.

Sanford Stadium does not have stadium parking either. They use campus parking decks, lots, grassy areas, streets, frat houses, etc as well.

It is like heaven and hell all at once on a Saturday in Athens during football season.

Perhaps you'd like to adopt Madonna's coping mechanism, of BLOWING IT UP?xD

Lets face it! IF UGA WINS, you'd gladly walk home to Moultrie!xD

It was built in the early '20s. 

That's probably why they didn't build a parking lot. 

You are correct.  There was probably sufficient room to park when the stadium was built.  Stanford is the exact opposite with it renovation making for a great in stadium experience.  From what I could tell from walking around on game day there was a lot of nearby parking.
