UH announces parking changes for 2010 football season
The Houston Cougars football team kicks off the 2010 season Saturday, September 4, versus Texas State, at 7pm Robertson Stadium.
For the first time, the lots surrounding Robertson Stadium are sold out with permits allocated to Cougar Pride members. With the increased number of fans attending Houston football this season, all are encouraged to carefully review the following procedures and directions to your respective parking locations.
If you are purchasing game day parking in the blue or green lots, fans will need to purchase parking for each additional parking stall used for tailgating.
Directions to Parking Lot Locations: With the addition of the Teal and Brown lots and with the parking reaching full capacity, fans will be required to enter their lot at the required entry points. Please click here for a detailed map.
If you've heard me on the sports talk shows, visited my other blogs, and / or seen me on Facebook, you will learn I'm a very proud graduate of the University of Houston.
I'm posting this to spread the word about the University of Houston's athletics. This video is from Mack Rhoades, UH's athletics director:
PARKING Fans should note that the March of Dimes will be holding its March for Babies on the east side (Cullen Boulevard) side of Robertson Stadium this weekend.
