Parking ideas?

Normally, I would park in Wilmette and walk down. That's a bit of a trek, even for a cheapskate like me. I can still park there and either Uber or CTA, wondering what others are thinking.

I think Gragg’s parking spot is an option. Or the one reserved for Schill.

Im planning on parking in downtown Evanston for $5 bucks. Check SpotHero app. 1.2 mile walk to the stadium. Shuttle available with drop off on Sheridan near Long field. Plenty of takeout options near downtown to pack a pregame meal to enjoyon a bench on the lakefront campus ( Hecky's BarBQ,Evanston Chicken Shack etc). A bit different from past years but a nice affordable alternative.

It will be interesting to see how far parking is restricted on the side streets west of Sheridan. We're only talking a crowd of 13K or so. I can't believe they would restrict parking past Sherman. A lot of residents need it.

Isn't that permit parking? Haven't tried to park there in a long time.

Just came here to endorse SpotHero. Never once had a problem with it. Great app.

Maybe but hard to say it would be during the day. Otherwise people would have to call the police anytime they had anyone even visit for a couple hours

Yes. And they will issue violations for it

I parked for over 25 years on Colfax just west of Ridge. The west half of the block is open parking and the east half is permit. I would guess that block is roughly equidistant between Ryan Field and The Lakepill. I am not attending tomorrrow’s game but if I were that is where I would park.
