I have a friend who is interested in getting some season tickets. He and his family have a camper/RV and would like to use it to tailgate (
come the night before a game). What is involved with getting access to the RV lot, and where is it ?

Olsen and Penberthy have hook ups, $75 a night, must stay two nights, acquired through PTTS. Lot R has no hookups, acquired through 12th man foundation. Overflow lot is first come, first served (never seen it fill up entirely), no hook ups, and costs $50 for the weekend.

We use Lot R, but look for it to change as far as the rules are concerned. The 12th Man Foundation made a joke out of it this year. Hopefully, they figure out some other way to handle it.

Everyone I know in that lot sent a letter to Miles about it, and we all got the same response: "No one else is complaining."

All RV lots are controlled by the 12th Man Foundation and PTTS for football weekends. There are 3 lots -
- South of Olsen Field with hookups (full and a several years long waiting list)
- Lot 114 beyond the Soccer field towards the Bush Lib (also with hookups I believe, and also full)
- PA 74 (Lot R) next to the meat science center. This lot has no hookups, but may have spaces avail next year. We have a spot there and it was never full this year, but you still have to go through the 12th Man Foundation to get a pass.

Hope this helps.

Isn't the one behind Reed free, and first come first serve with no hookups? That is lot 114 I think, and it is for anyone; not controlled by 12th Man.

There are no free lots for RV's on campus as of this past season. Lot 114 is known as Penberthy Park and was $100/weekend and I had to guarantee all home games.

Olsen is $150/weekend with the same reqiurements.

Both of these have 50amp electric and water hook ups and there is a waiting list which is controlled through PTTS. Call Ginger @ (979) 862-2551 and she can put you on the list.

PA74 is by the 12th Man Foundation and I know we didn't use our pass but once last and not going to renew it. Cost was $250 for the season.

Good Luck!
