10 am arrival Best offsite parking recommendations?

[ProcessTruster]

Picking up kids at airport 9:30 am.. head straight to stadium.   Should we park along Big Tree Rd up towards the Big Tree Inn or along Abbott north of Southwestern Blvd?   Was thinking Big Tree to allow for a visit to Hammer Lot (which I assume is full by then(?).   

 

Any thoughts, particularly of where the lots start to be full along Big Tree and Abbott around 10:30?    Much appreciated.   Haven't parked in non-stadium lots in many years. 

 

 Want to show the kids a taste of the pre-game madness I grew up with

I wouldn’t be able to sleep having to rely on the airlines to be 100% on time Sun morning as to not screw up my plan getting to the stadium.

yeah I agree, but they do not have much choice ... so I am trying to thread the needle here.  so if I can get some input on the more fun places to park that would help get this pulled together

ECC south campus, not bad walk and is only 45$. 
 

Yellow Brick parking isn’t bad, you can pre-buy and guarantee yourself a spot. Not far south from Hammers Lot, you’ll pass it if you walk to the stadium and can stop in on the tailgate there. 
 

Good luck!

Park the car, get out.

I always park on Big Tree Rd. just past (closer to the stadium) California, chose a house two years ago and go to the same one each week. I normally get there by 9 AM but for the TB game I couldn't get there until 11 AM. I don't remember exactly when I left, but I think there were still spots at noon or a bit after. The walk to the stadium is around 3/4 of a mile. I always get out quickly. Hammer lot is farther than the stadium however. Most of the time I like to go to Hammers for a bit, if you're there at 10:30 you have time to walk around to wherever you want to go.
