No problem! I had a much longer post typed up chastising you for getting to OP so late… but then I remembered, it’s a night game. Duh 😂
Also, this is all assuming you and the people you’re with don’t mind making that trek back to the car after the game. It might be a little more than a half mile. Like I said though, I’ve NEVER had a problem getting back onto the Thruway when parking there. (I usually park at a house between Kings Place and Queens Court, I think).
Getting there 9 hours before kickoff though, not sure if all the houses on Big Tree Rd will be “open for business” for parking yet. But some will be.
