First off, apologies for another Garth thread, but I need some advice from folks more familiar with the area around Tiger Stadium since we've never been.

We got our daughter tickets to the concert for Christmas and she's been anticipating going ever since. Unfortunately, we had a death in the family and won't be able to leave Monroe until sometime between 2:30-3:00 which kills our plan of getting there early Saturday to get settled. At the very best we'd be getting in town around 6:30 but with traffic factored in it's likely going to be later than that.

I've seen the parking map on lsusports.net, but I'd imagine all of those lots will likely be full by the time we could get there. Given we'll be late as it is, I'd rather have an idea of where our best bets might be rather than wander blindly.

I know we'll be far away, but any advice on which areas I should be looking for? Are there any shuttles or anything bringing people in from farther lots?

Again, I know it's like asking to look into a crystal ball, but any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks!

The "month" streets off Dalrymple may have spots (March, April, May, June, July), and it's near I-10. You'd have about a 20 minute walk but would avoid on-campus traffic.

We've parked there when getting in town late for SEC games. When leaving you'll be walking faster than the traffic is moving. But don't tell nobody.

And as everyone knows, avoid streets named for states and dead presidents.

Lived on july street in college. Its about a mile and 1/2 walk to tiger stadium (half hour) but I didn't mind it too much when I was 19.

Just parked in the Ag Center lot off of W. Parker. Still over 80% of the spots available. Also is free and on the edge of campus. So an easy get out

Try the LSU law center. Not too far a walk and plenty parking still

This is where we parked and it was a breeze getting out. Left at the end of the concert and got to our house in Denham around 11:30 and our other friends weren’t even out of the hayfield lots.

Knowing what I know now, Tanger outlets is the correct answer.
