Where are coming from? My parents come from Anderson and have no problem at all. The buses are much faster to get back to the cars this year. Leaving for Anderson is easy and can be really fast. Granted, they take back roads.

I would be there a few hours early. For an 8 pm game, it started to get really crowded at around 3:30.

I parked there for the NC State game. The traffic getting in was not a problem, but from there it was a nightmare. There was not even close to enough parking. We ended up parking almost up to Presidents House under the trees. then it was way too far for a handicapped person to walk. They did finally bring a golf cart but it was slow. We had to leave the game at the end of the third quarter. A bus did bring up back to Sikes but let us out at the pickup point. The problem was that there was no one there to help get to the car. I had to leave my handicapped wife sitting on the curb while I went to get the car. Hope they have straightened this out

That all sounds very bad. The noon games get a little more sketchy because everyone is coming in at the same time. I would just make sure you have the phone number to request a golf cart. Sadly, I don't happen to know it.

Fyi....for a noon game my parents try to get there by 8 am. I know not all handicap folks can sit around that long before the game, but my Dad can't risk the potential long walks. He would have a really hard time..

We had to park near Presidents house for the NC State game. Walking back to the car from the drop off point we had an older gentleman collapse on the walk back. Fortunately, if that can be said, it was from his neuropathy. We were initially afraid he might have had a heart attack.

Not hard to get in but can be a problem getting out.
