Last year we had a Gold Reserved pass for parking for a preseason game. We got there relatively early - a couple of hours before kickoff - and was told that they had oversold the Gold lots. We were forced to park 3/4 of the way back in Red.
Parking is an utter clusterfuck out there. This shit started with Pioli and has only gotten worse every year since. Parking now damned near costs as much as the cheap seats in the house. Ridiculous. [Reply]

After the 'early parking session', the Red Reserve lot essentially becomes public parking? That can't be right.
That's how it looks to me.
They throw fits about parking "just so" when you get out there but even then the Red is never completely full for a game. How would you like to be that guy that shows up at 8:45 to tailgate but you get diverted off to parking lot N, but some snobby fucks ro hung over morons show up and get to park a half a mile closer to the stadium? They can blow it out their ass. [Reply]

Just spoke to the ticket rep and they confirmed.
Red Reserve is dead. It's all just going to be red parking now and yes, the 'public lots' no longer exist.

They're obviously trying to get more discerning fans to pony up for Gold passes.
But you can't.
I've tried for 3 years to get them and it's for club level seats only. Screw that; my seats are expensive enough as it is, I'm not paying $250 per seat, per game just to get parking.
They won't let anyone outside of the club level ticket holders in Gold Reserve. I've put my name on their list if Gold passes open up; at 10 years of Seniority I'm probably in the top 1/3 or so, but I'm not expecting much.
This really may be my last year and that sucks something awful. [Reply]

Secondary market, maybe.
But like I said, we keep trying and they keep saying no. I suspect it will be even worse now.
This is absolutely fucking asinine. The guy I share my tickets with is out of town today but he'll be back for our softball game tonight and I'm going to ask him if he has any compunction about me raising holy hell over this.
I was fairly reserved in my first communication because he had these tickets for 3 years before I came along and they're in his name. I'm disinclined to set the world on fire under his banner without his permission.

Here's the crazy shit - I'm looking into the Broncos game for tickets. It's going to be half of my total season ticket bill from last year to go to one game. [Reply]

I'll be honest, I've gone to the public lots twice and if that's the way they intend to do things, I'm out next year. All the shit people talk about how unruly and awful the Arrowhead experience is these days comes from the public lots. It really is a bunch of sauced jackasses.
Red Reserve is (mostly) full of people that have committed thousands of dollars to the experience and it shows in how they conduct themselves. If they just open that up to jackass that pays his 30 dollars to come be a ****head, I'm not dealing with it.
It SHOULD be the opposite, but it doesn't seem to be. Since they are pricing out much of the common fans, one would think that would lend itself to a more affluent, less Natty Light filled atmosphere. [Reply]
