Mr. BG, don't the good folks in PA charge for parking, at their stadium? Yah, I thought so.

[NDNation]

Suspend transportation for after school activities? What does that mean? Football and Band have to get there themselves?

it goes to a good cause :)

How much are they charging to park?

[Mr. Buddy Garrity]

How much are they charging to park?

$1 I hear.

[shovel]

I don't like this idea. I'm already paying for a ticket. Before I make up my mind about it, I would like to know who gets the money and what it will be used for.

[whatnamecanipick]

I'll just take a cab to the game.

 

They'll not get my money............LOL :D  :D  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:

Well, Memorial have been charging for parking for years... I don't mind 1 dollar... EXCEPT.... This will cause a problem with traffic. Right now, The Butch already has several ways in. Now, to make sure everyone pays, the entrances will be restricted. I'm thinking like 3 entrances will be accessable.. that'll cause horrible backed up traffic on both Fannett road and I-H 10 side...

I think it's ridiculous to charge for parking at any high school event unless it's reliant or cowboy stadium a place of that magnitude. That's gotta be against some type of UIL rule right? If it ain't it should be. You mean to tell me this is the only scheme they muster. I've been here all my life. Beside for my 3 years in Austin an never seem anything like this. We should boycott and just park along the service roads of fannett and I-10. Only the handicap placards allow in parking lot. So I guess parking will increase at playoff time. Smdh

[ace2335]

Parking fee playoff time $5

[ace2335]

The B.S our own people put us thru = priceless

[88Warrior]

They found themselves in a big hole that they have to get out of....got to start somewhere...much more harder decisions to come...

[82 5A State Champs]

But, it's all about the kids, they said. Blah, blah, blah, blah. More lies from the former administration. Good riddance, crooks!

You complaining about a $1 but rather pay $40 at Reliant

[ace2335]

Not complaining. I really should have to explain the difference between reliant and tha butch. Workboot you do know the difference right?

[ace2335]

I guess we should look forward to a tax increase around here too in the near future since that's the case.

[ace2335]

Why not raise ticket prices $1 dollar? They would actually make more money that way and not run into the traffic issues.

[workbootz]

Yeah you paying somebody salary at Reliant vs a broken school district that's trying to get back on there feet. Reliant isn't hurting for anything like BISD.

[ace2335]

Is not state and lotto funded either. But that comes with the territory when it comes to PROFESSIONAL sports. Iono why I'm wasting my time bruh lol

This makes way more sense.
PA been charging for years. Been when that place was packed (TJ vs PNG) and they moved traffic along fairly well.

[PNGFan]

They have to the pay the 3 employees salary that sit around the Butches offices all day.
