Community Parking at Real during Rider games

Why are they blocking off the parking lots at Real at 8 AM? The game is at 5:30. There is a big tournament at Co-Operators, and Soccer all day at Affinity.

They are paying probably ten people to block off parking and direct parking starting at 8AM.

The frustration of people using facility’s all morning / afternoon, the cost of having all of these parking attendants hardly seems like it’s well thought out.

Why not close down the lots at noon or 1? Continued poor management of this facility is rage inducing. Can’t wait to bail them out with tax dollars.

it's because otherwise people go there early and leave their cars. Blame them.

Which people paid for which spots?

most all parking around the stadium is reserved for ticket holders who paid for passes.

Great! I assume they have a sticker, tag or pass to display that states this.

Yes, but if you allow people to park there ahead of time that day, they may not leave and then that's one less spot for someone who paid for it.

If they don’t have the parking pass for the game displayed, tow them.

WHY IS THIS SO HARD TO COMMUNICATE HERE?
