    @ARCarver centennial park is a good option. it did fill up last year and there is a nominal fee to park ($10?), can't remember how much. the north entrance is the closest if you park here. i don't know if you can park in the clubhouse lot. also not sure about overnight but you could call the park office.

    I just emailed them, i guess you can wait to see if they respond. i will post if they do.

    I've heard that word, but that one of them has coffee and cacao nibs with the vanilla. Additional word on the street is that some variants are the left overs from last year.

    I don't understand how these parking lots aren't forced to allow you to park overnight. I know it is their property and they can do what they want, but not allowing overnight parking almost seems like it will encourage intoxicated driving.

    our situation is that my buddy and I drive to the event, and then his wife and her friend come in one car at the end of the day and they drive both cars home.

    That seems like shifting the blame to me. If people get too drunk to drive home, that shouldn't be the problem of the parking lot owner.

    You are in a great situation. I'd assume not everyone has that arrangement

    Your right, it's on the drinker to behave. But just charge double to park it over night as an option.

    Yeah, it seems they could get more of a premium with something like that. I'm just glad I have no worries about having a car - if I did, I would have less of a desire to go.

    maybe they will say fuck it and not enforce the rules. someone could call them to clarify.

    I see a whole lot of barrels that I don't recognize and even after some Google Fu I'm not sure what to expect, has 3 Floyds done any of them in the past?
