Park at Hammers Lot and enjoy the pre-game festivities.

I am in Lot 1... 

 

Pros:

1. Tailgate/atmosphere

2. Short walk on fan path to stadium

 

Cons:

1. Just 1 but its the worst..  traffic leaving stadium is HORRIBLE.  Unless you leave game early, plan to be sitting in that for 45 min+ before even getting out to the road

 

I've not parked in 7 b4, but assume traffic is impacting everyone.

Never parked in #1 or south side of the stadium.  I live in the Northtowns and park on the North side - lot 7.  It is also very difficult to get out of after the games - 45 mins to an hour.  Lot 7 trickles out until Lot 6 (preferred) is empty, then it picks up.

I am on the young side of middle aged. A friend of ours turned us on to the Wings lot years ago and we haven't looked back.

 

Great tailgating atmosphere,but on the family friendly side. Real bathrooms. A bar inside with TV's if that's your vibe. Easy exit. But a little bit of a hike.

 

Once in a while we'll park at Hammers, get closer, or head over early and hit a more rowdy lot.

I'm too addicted to the relatively breezy ingress/egress of approaching Highmark from the West (even though I live up north outside the 290) to know much about those lots east of Abbott. I'm guessing ECC, where we often park, will be in more demand once the new stadium is open. Shorter walk for us, too. I wonder if fans will modify their habits/routes much?

This is not a Lot 1 vs 7 answer but get impacted by traffic a lot post game. After a game, we stop at Louie’s Texas Red Hots on Southwestern just a couple of buildings away from O’Neill’s. A warm & dry location with a large restroom and a place to get something to eat while waiting for traffic to mellow out. Lots of Bills fans there after a game.

I think the two lots should fight it out!  Then, and only then, will we know for sure.

I wouldn't park there if someone paid me.

Thought this thread was to arrange a brawl. Disappointed

One of the issues I raised when at my season tix Experience was how bad lot 7 has gotten when leaving. If you leave at the end of a close game, where everyone leaves at once, can take well over an hour to leave. Problem is foot traffic stops car egress.  Honestly, nothing they can do except limit ped traffic. Late night games are most problematic.

 

Only parked lot 1 for a preseason game so no feedback there.

 

My advice? Park closest to your tix entrance.

I love lot 7, right off of Southwestern. Easy entry, easy exit.
