For the past 9+ years I’ve lived within reasonable walking distance to Peden and the Convo so I haven’t had to worry about parking. Recently moved about an hour away and purchased tickets for a couple weeknight home games coming up. Any advice on where I should aim to park/how much it will cost?

Hoping to leave right after work with some time to stop in for a pregame beer or two at one of the Athens breweries so the closer to the stadium I can get the better it will be.

This should help:

Depending on where I'm going pregame, I feed meters and leave my car at a meter. I've also parked in various green lots on campus and walked farther on nice days just to get a walk through campus. Otherwise the lots out toward the physical plant for $5 are my go to because it allows for leaving out towards the Plains to US-33.

I have blue lot passes, but I always park in the Peden lot, which I find a lot more convenient. (sorry for the pun). I believe that you can also park in this lot on a pay-as-you-go basis. Just my two cent worth.

I do the same OCF. With all the barriers up around the Convo, walking across Richland and in the front door is very easy.
